When only the CPU LED is lit, a

1.

Determine whether the CNFG LED is also lit. If the CNFG

 

microprocessor has failed.

 

 

LED is not lit, a microprocessor has failed.

 

 

 

 

When the CPU and CNFG LEDs are lit,

 

a. Make sure that the failing microprocessor, which is

 

 

indicated by a lit LED on the system board, is installed

 

the microprocessor configuration is not

 

 

 

correctly. See the Hardware Maintenance Manual for

 

valid.

 

 

 

information about installing a microprocessor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

b. If the failure remains, call service.

 

 

2.

If the CNFG LED is lit, then an invalid microprocessor

 

 

 

configuration has occurred.

 

 

 

a. Make sure that the microprocessors are compatible with

 

 

 

each other. They must match in speed and cache size.

 

 

 

To compare the microprocessor information, run the

 

 

 

Setup utility and select System Information, then select

 

 

 

System Summary, and then select Processor Details.

 

 

 

b. (Trained service technician only) Replace an

 

 

 

incompatible microprocessor.

 

 

 

c. If the failure remains, call for service.

Check the LEDs on the hard disk drives for the drive with a

 

hard disk drive has failed or is missing.

2.

Reseat the hard disk drive backplane.

 

 

3.

Remove and reinstall the hard disk drive backplanes. See

 

 

 

the Hardware Maintenance Manual for information about

 

 

 

removing and installing a hard disk drive backplane.

 

 

4.

Replace the hard disk drive backplane for the failing drive or

 

 

 

drives.

component that is causing the error.

 

 

2.

Check the system-event log for information about the error.

 

 

3.

Replace any failed or missing replaceable components,

 

 

 

such as the battery or PCI riser-card assembly.

 

 

4.

If a voltage regulator has failed, replace the system board.
