The Computer Does Not Respond
The computer locks up.
Wait a few moments; if your computer does not respond after a
reasonable length of time, press Ctrl Alt Del. If that doesn’t
work, press the RESET button.
You may have installed memory using SIMMs that work at the
wrong speed. Install the correct SIMMs (see Chapter 4).
You reset the computer, but it still does not respond.
Try turning the computer off, wait 20 seconds, and turn it on
again.
Your system suddenly stops operating.
You may have overloaded the power supply. See your option
card manual(s) for the power requirements of your card(s).
Then check Appendix A to see if they exceed the option slot
power limits of your computer.
Keyboard Problems
The section displays a keyboard error message when you
turn on or reset the computer.
Make sure the keyboard is securely connected to the keyboard
port and not the mouse port. Although these ports look alike,
they cannot be used interchangeably.
