Troubleshooting an SD Card

CAUTION:

Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You

should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.

1

Enter the System Setup program and ensure that the internal SD card port
is enabled. See "Integrated Devices Screen" on page 66.

Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect
the system from the electrical outlet.

3

Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 84.

CAUTION:

Devices screen of the system setup, you must follow the instructions in step 5 to
step 9 to avoid loss of data.
If the Redundancy option is set to Disabled, proceed to

the failure.
