Power problems can be difficult to solve. For example, a short circuit can exist
anywhere on any of the power distribution buses. Usually, a short circuit will cause
the power subsystem to shut down because of an overcurrent condition.
Note: To help isolate whether a power problem is in the power distribution bus or in
A general procedure for troubleshooting power problems is as follows:
1. Turn off the computer, and disconnect all ac power cords.
2. Check for loose cables in the power subsystem. Also check for short circuits, for
