Attention
The drives in the computer you are servicing might have been rearranged or
the drive startup sequence changed. Be extremely careful during write
operations such as copying, saving, or formatting. Data or programs can be
overwritten if you select an incorrect drive.
General error messages appear if a problem or conflict is found by an application
program, the operating system, or both. For an explanation of these messages, refer
to the information supplied with that software package.
Before replacing any FRUs, ensure that the latest level of BIOS is installed on the
system. A down-level BIOS might cause false errors and unnecessary replacement
of the system board. For more information on how to determine and obtain the
latest level BIOS, see “BIOS levels” on page 211.

1.
Power-off the computer and all external devices.
