Troubleshooting cautions
• Before deciding to install a new motherboard, consult
• Inspect all cables and internal components as described on pages
inspections do not solve the problem, locate symptoms in the troubleshooting table
beginning on
page 121
• If troubleshooting strategies (checking cables and connections, reinstalling system

avoid replacing both to solve one problem.)
– First, replace the hard disk drive and install system software.
Always replace a faulty hard disk drive with a new hard disk drive. Transferring a hard
disk drive from one ColorPASS to another is incorrect and strongly discouraged.
– If the problem persists, reinstall the original hard disk drive in the system, and then
replace the motherboard.
