Troubleshooting
This chapter helps you identify and solve problems that might occur while you are using the system.
For any issue, first ensure that you are using the latest firmware and files. In addition to the server firmware and files, make sure to update any drivers used for components you have installed in your system, such as video drivers, network drivers and SAS drivers.
If you are unable to resolve your server problems on your own, contact your dealer or local Acer representative for assistance.

Problems following initial system installation
Problems that occur at initial system startup are usually caused by an incorrect installation or configuration. Hardware failure is a less frequent cause. If the problem you are experiencing is with a specific software application, see "There is problem with the application software" on page 144.
