Solution
Turn off the workstation, turn on the
external device, then turn on the
workstation to integrate the device
with the workstation system.
Reboot the workstation and follow
the instructions for accepting the
changes.
Use Windows 2000 or Windows XP
Device Manager to deselect the
automatic settings for the board and
choose a basic configuration that
does not cause a resource conflict.
You can also use Computer Setup to
reconfigure or disable devices to
resolve the resource conflict.
1. Review the documentation that
came with the system to
determine if you are using the
correct memory modules and to
verify the proper installation.
2. Observe the beeps and LED
lights on the front of the
workstation. See Appendix C
"POST Error Messages" to
determine possible causes.
1. Reseat DIMMs.
2. Replace DIMMs one at a time to
isolate the faulty module.
3. Replace third-party memory
with HP memory.

1. Reseat the graphics card. Power
on the system.
2. Replace the graphics card.
