Solving Workstation Problems
Your system is designed for simple, trouble-free installation and maintenance. As a
rule, your first attempt to power up your equipment will be successful. However, new
systems sometimes have easily remedied problems.
As mentioned, your system follows a specific routine each time you turn it on.
Variations from this routine indicate that your equipment may have a failure. If your
system does not power up normally, do not be alarmed; fixing the problem can be as
simple as reseating a loose cable.
When you think about a problem, keep in mind that your best tools are common sense
and deductive reasoning. The following paragraphs guide you through basic
installation troubleshooting.
Preliminary Checks
If your system does not power up correctly after you have installed it, you may have
any of several minor problems. Problems that occur the first time you turn on your
system are usually the result of installation errors or an incorrect CMOS hardware
configuration. Occasionally, the problem is the result of an actual hardware failure.
If your system fails when you first start it, review the installation and configuration
process and reread applicable sections of this guide or other pertinent documentation.
Try to answer the following questions:
•
Is there a floppy disk in drive A?
•
Are all power cables connected correctly and all power switches turned on?
•
Are all interface cable connections secure and correct?
•
Are all jumper and switch settings on the system board and peripheral devices
correct? For information on the system board jumpers, see the configuration label
on the bottom of the motherboard.
•
Are all feature boards and drives installed correctly?
