Suggested Resolution
Determine if a conflict exists by
1
removing a card (not the video
card) (see page 82) and then
restarting the computer.
If the problem persists, reinstall
2
the card that you removed,
remove a different card, and
then restart the computer.
Repeat this process for each
3
card. If the computer starts
normally, troubleshoot the last
card removed from the
computer for resource conflicts
(see "Resolving Software and
Hardware Incompatibilities"
on page 65).
If the problem persists, contact
4
Dell (see page 113).
• If the computer has a video
card, remove the card and
reinstall it (see page 91), and
restart the computer.
• If the problem still exists, install
a video card that you know
works and restart the computer.
• If the problem persists or the
computer has integrated video,
contact Dell (see page 113).
Reseat all power and data cables
and restart the computer.
