Powering Up the System

•Press the ON/OFF switch on the front panel, and the green LED on the front panel will illuminate ON.

•If you turn off your system, wait at least ten seconds before turning the system back on.

•The system self-checks the memory even if a monitor is not connected. If a monitor is connected and powered on, the screen will display the power-up sequence.

•If more than one CPU is installed, the system will display which CPU it is currently testing.

•If any errors are encountered, your system will display them on the monitor.

•If a monitor is not connected or the system is unable to display an error, an error beep code will sound.

If the system encounters an error, it will most likely be a nonfatal one, meaning, the system will function until the error can be corrected (usually through the BIOS Setup). In the rare case of a fatal error, contact your Technical Support field service support.
