Solving POST error message problems
If you receive an error message during the power-on-self-test
(POST), completing the steps outlined in this section might enable
you to resolve the problem.
Note: If you have just added, removed, or changed the location of
a device and you receive an error message, follow the
procedure described in the Important text box on page 22. If
the procedure on page 22 does not eliminate the error
message, then proceed with the following instructions.
1. Write down all error code numbers and descriptions that appear
on the screen as you start your server. (Note that a single
problem can cause several error messages to appear. When you
correct the cause of the first error message, the other error
messages probably will not appear on the screen the next time
you turn on your server.)
2. If you have set a power-on password, a password prompt
appears. If you have set both power-on and administrator
passwords, you can type either of the passwords at the
password prompt. However, if you think you might need to
change any settings in the Configuration/Setup Utility program,
you must type your administrator password at the password
prompt. If you type your power-on password, you will be able
to view error codes and error code descriptions displayed on the
POST Startup Errors screen, and you will also be able to view
limited information in the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
However, you will not be able to change any settings.
3. In the case of most errors, the Configuration/Setup Utility
program starts automatically so that you can attempt to identify
and correct the problem. When the Configuration/Setup Utility
program starts, a screen titled POST Startup Errors appears.
(Note that the POST Startup Errors screen does not appear
immediately. You must wait approximately one minute.) If the
POST Startup Errors screen does not appear, proceed to step 6.
4. At the POST Startup Errors screen, select Continue if you want
to access the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu. Select
Exit Setup
if you want to exit the Configuration/Setup Utility
program. (See the Important text box in step 5 for information
