Advanced Troubleshooting

63

A possible expansion card failure has

occurred.

1

Determine if a conflict exists by

removing a card (not a video card)

(see page 89) and restarting the

computer.

2

If the problem persists, reinstall

the card that you removed, remove

a different card, and then restart

the computer.

3

Repeat this process for each card.

If the computer starts normally,

troubleshoot the last card removed

from the computer for resource

conflicts (see "Resolving Software

and Hardware Incompatibilities"

on page 71).

4

If the problem persists, contact

Dell (see page 129).

Another failure has occurred.

• Ensure that the cables are properly

connected to the system board (see

page 85) from the hard drive, CD

drive, and DVD drive.

• If the problem persists, contact

Dell (see page 129).

The computer is in a normal operating

condition after POST.

None.
