Index of Symptoms, Messages, Error Codes, or Beeps How to Use Error Messages: Use the messages, error codes, and beeps combinations that occur to diagnose failures. If more than one failure occurs, diagnose from the first failure that appears. The cause of the first failure can result in false messages, error codes, or beeps.
Page 73
NOTES: If an error message and incorrect audio response occur, diagnose the error message first. If you cannot run the diagnostics program tests but did receive a POST error code, diagnose the POST error message.

Troubleshooting Failing Parts or Assemblies: The check procedures generally help you trace a problem to one part or assembly. The last step of the specific check procedure you are using indicates that a part or assembly is failing. You should inspect the part or assembly before you decide to replace it. It might be loose, dirty, or in need of a small repair.
Factory-Installed Storage Devices Use this check procedure to test any factory-installed drives. ATTENTION: The customer may have customized settings in the Setup Utility (other than default settings) on the computer you are servicing. Running the Setup Utility might alter those settings. Take note of the current settings and verify that the customer settings are in place when service is complete.

Memory (DIMM) Your System has 2 system memory module sockets, DIMM 0 and DIMM 1. These sockets hold dual in line memory modules (DIMM) that contains 3.3V signal or double-sided synchronous DRAM (SDRAM). The maximum memory size is 256 MB total. If there is no VGA DRAM daughter card installed, DIMM 0 must be fitted with DRAM module.
Introduction This chapter contains system board layouts and jumper settings. It is useful when you are asked to measure voltages. Use this information to help you locate parts such as electronic boards, connectors, pin numbers, and test points. This chapter also contains jumper settings for the hard disk drive, CD-ROM (compact disc-read-only memory) drive, and the connector information for modem adapter card.

Power Supply Cable Connector Specifications Refer to the following figures when checking for voltages on power supply cable connectors. When checking voltages, the power supply fan must be running. To power on the power supply without using the on/off switch, use a screwdriver or other tools to short the connector JP7 (with the switch cable disconnected from the connector on the system board) or use a connection (jumper) to short the black and green wires of the 20-pin connector on power supply.
