IBM Aptiva 2187 Service Manual page 71

NOTES:
If an error message and incorrect audio response occur, diagnose the error
message first.
If you cannot run the diagnostics program tests but did receive a POST error
code, diagnose the POST error message.
If you did not receive any error message, look for a description of your error
symptoms in "Error Symptoms List" in table 2-3.
Check all power supply voltages, switch, and jumper settings before you
replace the system board. Also check the power supply voltages if you have
a "system no-power" condition. (See "Power Supply Cable Connector
Specifications" on page 5-7 and "Aptiva Type 2187 System Board Layout" on
page 5-3.)
If you are unable to correct the problem by using the "BIOS Error Codes,
Messages, And Beeps List" table and "Error Symptoms List" table, go to
"Undetermined Problems" on page 2-40.

Action/FRU listed in right column is the most likely cause.
