Observing the Boot Routine
NOTE:
Most steps in this procedure require observation of system functions and indications, some of which can occur
simultaneously. You may need to reboot the system several times to complete all of these steps.
1. If the system is off, turn on all peripherals and the system. If the system is on, reboot the system.
2. During the boot routine, observe the system for any of the following indications:

If the indicators did not flash, replace the keyboard with a keyboard that you know works. If the problem

3. Observe the power-supply indicators.
If the fault indicator(s) is lit, troubleshoot the system power supply. See the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide.
