■
Check any fuses or circuit breakers in the chassis or other power supply
(possibly a UPS).
■
Make sure the controller module is firmly seated in the chassis.
■
Remove all other modules from the chassis.
■
Remove any nonessential cables or devices.
■
Try the controller in a different chassis.
■
Try a similar controller in the same chassis.
■
Reset the CMOS.
■
Recover the internal drive on the controller.
■
Make sure the RAM is properly seated.
What if I can’t see the video?
If you can see the BIOS screen at boot time but do not see video from the OS,
the video card output may be set past the monitor limits. To resolve the problem,
start Windows in Safe Mode by booting the controller from your recovery media and
verifying that Windows troubleshooting options are available. If you do not see your
BIOS screen on boot up, check all cables, adapters, and monitor connections and
power.
My system boots fine as long as a particular module is
not in my chassis. How do I boot the chassis with the
module installed?
The most common cause of this problem is a damaged module. Try the module
in a different chassis or with a different controller. Also, remove any external
cables or terminal blocks connected to the system. If the module does not work
in these cases, it is likely damaged. Contact the module manufacturer for further
troubleshooting.
