        Problem Solving

This chapter helps you identify and solve problems that
may occur during system installation or while using
your system. The first section of this chapter tells you
how to reset your system in the event of problems. The
next few sections provide troubleshooting checklists
and procedural steps that help you isolate specific
system problems. The last section includes BIOS and
system and disk status user information.

Warning: The DC push-button on/off switch on the
front panel does not turn off the system AC power.
Before doing the procedures in this chapter, make sure
that your system is powered off and unplug the AC
power cord from the back of the chassis. Failure to
disconnect power before opening your system can result
in personal injury and equipment damage.
