System Boots when Installing PCI Card

System management features require full-time "standby" power. This means some parts of
the system have power going to them whenever the power cord is plugged in, even if you
have turned the system power off with the power button on the front panel. If you install a
PCI card with the AC power cord plugged in, a signal may be sent to command the system
to boot. Before installing a PCI card, you should always:
•
Turn off the workstation power by using the power button on the front of the system.
•
Unplug the AC power cord(s) from the workstation.

Problems with Newly Installed Application Software

Problems that occur when you run new application software are usually related to the
software, not the workstation hardware. Faulty equipment is unlikely, especially if other
software runs correctly.
Check the following:
•
Make sure the system meets the minimum hardware requirements for the software.
See the software documentation.
•
Make sure the software is properly installed and configured for the system. See the
software documentation.
•
Use only an authorized copy. Unauthorized copies often do not work.
•
If you are running the software from a USB floppy disk, CD-ROM or DVD-ROM,
try a different disk.
•
Make sure the correct device drivers installed.
If the problems persist, contact the software vendor's customer service representative.
