Troubleshooting Checklist

Read through the symptoms below. If you find one that resembles the
problem you're having, try the corresponding possible solutions.
The computer doesn't power on when you turn on the switch, or the
operating system prompt doesn't appear on the screen. Be sure:
• The power cord is plugged into the wall outlet.
• The cables and cords are attached correctly.
• Any boards or cards you removed are reinstalled properly.
• If you have installed the Pentium OverDrive processor in a socket with
no handle, is the chip fully inserted? Use the removal tool as a
measuring device to check the distance between the processor and the
socket. The removal tool should barely fit. Check all four sides to
ensure the processor is inserted evenly.
• The Pentium OverDrive processor and the socket are correctly aligned.
Your computer boots and runs normally. However, the Pentium OverDrive
processor fails the diagnostic test.
• Did you set the jumpers or system switches correctly, as described in
your computer owner's manual?
• Your computer may need an updated control program (BIOS). Contact
the technical support department at your computer vendor or dealer for
BIOS information.
