If nothing happens when you press the power button:

Make sure that the power cable is plugged in securely and that your surge protector (if you are using one) is plugged in and turned on.

Make sure that the monitor is connected to the server, plugged into the power outlet or surge protector, and turned on. You may also need to adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls.

Wait 5-10 seconds after plugging the power cord into the server before pressing the power button. This allows the internal monitoring and control hardware to initialize.

If you cannot find the cause of the power loss, contact Gateway Customer Care. For more information, see “Getting Help” on page 7.

3 The first time you turn on the server, any pre-installed operating system may begin asking you for configuration settings. See your operating system’s documentation for instructions on configuring advanced settings for your specific network.

Understanding the power-on self-test

When you turn on your server, the power-on self-test (POST) routine checks the server memory and components. If POST finds any problems, the server displays error messages. Write down any error messages that you see, then see “Error messages” on page 105 and “Beep codes” on page 108 for troubleshooting information.
