11. Troubleshooting
This section provides useful tips to get the PPC65BP-1x operating. For
basic hardware installation and configuration, refer to “Setup and
Installation” on page 14. This section addresses system integration issues
in terms of BIOS setting and OS diagnostics.
11.1 BIOS Settings
This section assumes that you have correctly selected and connected all
the devices with the required cables before applying power. If this is in
question, inspect the connection and application of each of the following
components: 204-pin DDR3 Memory, keyboard, mouse, SATA hard disk,
VGA connector, power cable of the device, and all ATX accessories. Failure
of any of these components can cause system failure.
It is recommended that you press <Del> and enter the BIOS setup menu
during the initial boot-up sequence to configure a stable BIOS
configuration that can be woken.
NOTE Although you can access the BIOS by pressing <Esc> instead of <Del> ,
<Del> is used in the following procedures.
11.1.1 Loading the Default Optimal Setting
NOTE If the system appears to be unstable during its startup, you can try loading
the default BIOS configuration to see if this solves the issues.
When prompted in the main setup menu, load setup defaults:
1. Apply power to an installed PPC65BP-1x and press <Del> to enter the
BIOS setup menu.
2. Select the Exit menu and then scroll to Restore Defaults .
3. Press Enter .
4. To load the default optimal BIOS setup, select Yes . This forces the BIOS
setting back to the initial factory configuration.
11.1.2 Reset CMOS BIOS Configuration
A jumper can reset the BIOS CMOS settings to the factory default. Enable/
disable the Clear CMOS Function hardware circuit, by placing or removing
the jumper from JP1.
To reset the BIOS CMOS configuration to the factory default settings:
1. Remove power from the PPC65BP-1x.
2. Find JP1.
3. Remove jumpers from pins 1-2.
