Power On Self Test Fails
Computer Does Not Boot
1 Check the power connection to the drive.
2 If the connection is secure, replace the power cable with one that is
known to work.
3 If the drive still does not work, contact the Technical Support
department.
If the drive fails its Power On Self Test (POST):
1 Check for a cartridge in the drive. If you find one, eject it.
2 Power-down the drive and power it up again.
3 If the drive still fails its POST, contact the Technical Support
department.
If the computer does not boot after you install the drive:
1 You may have forgotten to reattach the computer's power cable. Be
sure all cables are connected properly to the computer.
2 Be sure the computer's power cable is connected to a power outlet
that is known to work. Plug into the outlet another appliance, such as
a lamp, that you know to work. If the appliance does not work, the
problem is with the outlet.
3 The power outlet connected to the computer is controlled by a wall
switch that is removing power from the outlet. Either switch outlets
or set the wall switch so that power is applied to the outlet.
4 The computer has two SCSI host adapters installed whose resources
are conflicting with each other. Remove the conflicting device or
consult the documentation that came with the device for suggestions
about resolving the problem.
