2. Ensure the hard disk drive power and SCSI cables are correctly
connected as described in "SCSI Hard Drive" on page 169.
3. Check that booting from the hard drive has not been disabled in the
BIOS Setup Utility and has been detected by looking in the Boot
menu of the Setup program as described in "Boot Menu" on page 57.
4. Refer to your operating system documentation for instructions on
running system diagnostic tools like scan disk or defragmentation.
5. Run the SCSI test in the
Tools. HP e-Diag Tools is described in "Using e-Diag Tools for
