Chapter 4: Solving Problems
Diskette Drive Activity Light Does Not Light
Check the following:
❑ Are the diskette drive power and signal cables properly installed?
❑ Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the diskette drive set correctly?
❑ Is the diskette drive properly configured?
❑ Is the diskette drive activity light always on? If so, the signal cable may be plugged
in incorrectly.
If you are using the onboard diskette controller, use the SSU to make sure that Onboard
Floppy is set to Enabled. If you are using an add-in diskette controller, make sure that
Onboard Floppy is set to Disabled. To run the SSU, see “When to Run the SSU” in
Chapter 3.
If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the diskette drive, baseboard, or
drive signal cable. Contact your service representative for assistance.
Hard Disk Drive Activity Light Does Not Light
If you have installed one or more hard disk drives in your system, check the following:
❑ Are the power and signal cables to the drive properly installed?
❑ Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the hard drive and adapter board set
correctly?
❑ Is the onboard IDE controller enabled? (IDE hard drives only)
❑ Is the hard disk drive properly configured?
Note: Front panel hard disk LED indicates IDE and SCSI devices: the hard disk drive
activity light on the front panel lights when either an IDE hard disk drive, or a SCSI
device controlled by the onboard SCSI host controller, is in use. This LED does not
display CD-ROM activity.
