3 Troubleshooting Your PC

If Your PC Has a Hardware Problem

If the hard disk activity light does not flicker when the PC is accessing the hard disk drive:

Check that the control panel connector is firmly attached to the system board.

Check that the disk power and data cables are correctly connected.

If you are using a hard disk drive with a controller board (a SCSI hard disk, for example), the activity light does not flicker when the PC is accessing the hard disk drive

If the CD-ROM Drive Has a Problem

Be sure to disconnect the power cord and any telecommunication cables from your computer before you remove the cover to check the cable connections or jumper settings.

To avoid electric shock and harm to your eyes by laser light, do not open the CD-ROM drive enclosure. The CD-ROM drive should be serviced by qualified service personnel only. Do not attempt to make any adjustment of the unit. Refer to the label on the CD-ROM for power requirements and wavelength. This PC is a class 1 laser product.

No Sound from the CD-ROM Drive

If you are having problems with sound when playing a CD:

Check that the volume control (if present) on the CD-ROM drive front panel is not set to the minimum.

Ensure that the disk in the CD-ROM drive is an audio disk and not a Photo CD or data CD.

If using headphones or external speakers, check that they are properly connected.

Check that the CD audio cable is correctly installed and is connected to the system board.
