What happens 

What to do 

CMOS RAM 
settings are 
wrong 

If system settings stored in CMOS RAM change 
for no apparent reason (for example, the time of 
day develops an error), the backup battery may 
no longer have enough power to maintain the 
settings.  Replace the battery (Chapter 2).    

Diskette drive 
light does not go 
on when drive is 
in use or is tested 
by POST 

Make sure the power and signal cables for the 
drive are properly installed. 
Check that the drive is properly configured and 
enabled in Setup. 

Hard drive light 
does not go on 
when drive is in 
use or is tested by 
POST 

Make sure the power and signal cables for the 
drive are properly installed. 
Make sure the front panel connector is securely 
attached to the system board headers. 
Check that the drive is properly configured and 
enabled in Setup. 
Check the drive manufacturer's manual for proper 
configuration for remote hard disk drive activity. 

Power-on light 
does not go on 

If the system is operating normally, check the 
connector between the system board and the 
front panel.  If OK, the light may be defective. 

Prompt doesn't 
appear after 
system boots 

It’s probably switched off.   
A serious fault may have occurred consult your 
dealer service department / Technical Support. 

Setup, can't enter 

If you can't enter Setup to make changes, check 
the switch that disables entry into Setup (Chapter 
2).  If the switch is set to allow entry into Setup, 
you might need to clear CMOS RAM to the 
default values and reconfigure the system in 
Setup. 

System halts 
before completing 
POST 

This indicates a fatal system error that requires 
immediate service attention.  Note the screen 
display and write down any beep code emitted.  
Provide this information to your dealer service 
department / Technical Support.
