Problem
System powers on, the display works, but the system does not complete the
boot process or you see one of the following error messages:
Possible Cause
Hard drive is incorrectly set up in CMOS.
Hard drive cable may not be properly connected.
CMOS may have lost settings.
SCSI controller card may have lost settings.
Files on hard drive may be corrupted.
Hard drive may be defective.
Solution
If you have a SCSI hard drive, make sure that the CMOS says Not Installed
for all hard disk drives. For help in getting to your CMOS settings, see
chapter 3- The BIOS Setup Program.
For an IDE drive - check the parameters of the hard drive. Have the system
re-Autodetect the settings of the drive. To do this, highlight the first hard
disk from the MAIN screen of your CMOS Setup (labeled Primary IDE
Master) and press the <Enter> key. On the next screen press <Enter>
again and select AUTO CONFIGURED. Press <Enter> and the system
should reassign the proper values to the hard drive. You will also want to
make sure that the primary IDE controller is enabled. To verify, move to
the ADVANCED section of CMOS and press <Enter> on the line that says
PERIPHERAL CONFIGURATION. Press <Enter> again and select AUTO.
Exit and save your changes.
With the power OFF, carefully open the system unit. Reset the gray ribbon
cable that is connected to the hard drive and to the motherboard or SCSI
Controller Card. To assist you, the colored stripe going down the side of
the gray controller cable signifies pin one and should be connected to pin
one of the controller and drive. Also, check to ensure that the power
connector in the Hard Drive is secure. Power the system back up and
perform an AUTODETECT of the hard drive again.
