Does not boot from drive A: (floppy disk drive) or other expected boot device

Reason

Solution

Corrupt boot disk, or boot disk does not have
correct boot utilities.

Replace the bootable diskette with a known
working diskette.

The boot sequence may be set to C, A, in which
case the machine will not boot from A if there
is an operating system on C.

Change the boot sequence.

The BIOS is corrupted.

Load a new BIOS to the system’s flash
EPROM.  See Chapter 5.

Floppy disk drive is not recognized

Reason

Solution

BIOS is not configured properly.

Configure the Floppy A and B parameters to the required
settings in BIOS Setup.  Refer to Chapter 5.

Power cable is not attached.

Ensure the floppy drive power cable is properly attached.

Floppy data cable is not attached.

Ensure the floppy data cable is properly attached to the
floppy drive and to the system board.

System hard disk drive is not recognized

Reason

Solution

Hard disk drive power cable not attached.

Open the base unit and ensure power cable is
properly attached.  See the System Reference.

Hard disk drive SCSI cable not attached.

Open the base unit.  Ensure the SCSI cable is
properly attached at both ends.  See the System
Reference.

SCSI termination is enabled on the hard disk
drive you installed.

Disable the SCSI termination.  See the
documentation with the hard disk drive.

Some viruses cause the system to not
recognize hard disk drives.

Run a virus scan program that checks the Master
Boot Record.  Clear any viruses detected by the
program.
