mP4G/mP4GL Motherboard
If there is still a problem, check the internal components. Turn off and unplug the system before you remove the system housing cover.
•Press all installed DIMMs into the module sockets to make sure they’re fully inserted.
•Make sure you used the correct cables to connect the internal peripherals and that the peripherals are properly connected to the motherboard. Check the Master/Slave positions on all IDE cables. If you in- stalled a device that uses
•Check that all expansion cards are correctly installed and fully inserted in the expansion slots. Pay par- ticular attention to the AGP display card if one is installed.
•Make sure the processor and its fan/heatsink cool- ing assembly are properly installed.
•Check all the hardware settings on the motherboard and make sure they are correct.
When you’re done, reassemble the system and try again. If the problem persists after you have checked all of the above, there may be a hardware conflict or bug. See the next section for additional information.
Hardware Configuration Problems
It is possible for system hardware components to conflict with each other. While all the components and subsystems on the motherboard are designed and tested to work to- gether, expansion cards and peripheral devices can be a problem.
Assuming you have gone through the general troubleshooting procedures and the system still will not start, if you have just added new hardware to your system, there may be a hardware conflict or bug or a problem with a device driver. Try removing the new hardware and see if the system will start. If it does, consult with the device manufacturer for information on solving the problem. In some cases, a firmware or driver upgrade may resolve the problem.
