Dell PowerEdge 1750 - Manual (Page 28)

Warning Messages
A warning message alerts you to a possible problem and asks you to take corrective action before the system continues a task. For example, before you
format a diskette, a message may warn you that you may lose all data on the diskette, as a way to protect against inadvertently erasing or writing over the
data. These warning messages usually interrupt the procedure and require you to respond by typing y (yes) or n (no).
Diagnostics Messages
When you run a test group or subtest in the system diagnostics, an error message may result. These particular error messages are not covered in this
section. Record the message on a copy of the Diagnostics Checklist (see " Getting Help "), and then follow the instructions in that section for obtaining technical
assistance.
Alert Messages
The optional system management software generates alert messages for your system. For example, the server agent software generates messages that
appear in the SNMP trap log file. Alert messages consist of information, status, warning, and failure messages for drive, temperature, fan, and power
conditions. More information about alert messages is provided in the system management software documentation found on the documentation CD that
shipped with your system.

4-2-2 Shutdown failure
4-2-3 Gate A20 failure
4-2-4 Unexpected interrupt in protected mode Ensure that all expansion cards are properly seated, and then reboot the system.
4-3-1 Improperly seated or faulty memory modules Remove and reseat the memory modules. See " Installing Memory Modules " in "Installing System
Options." If the problem persists, replace the memory modules. If the problem persists, see
"
Getting Help ."
4-3-3 Defective system board Replace the system board. See " Getting Help ."
4-3-4 Time-of-day clock stopped Replace the battery. See " Replacing the System Battery " in "Installing System Options." If the
problem persists, replace the system board. See " Getting Help ."
4-4-1 Super I/O chip failure (defective system board) Replace the system board. See " Getting Help ."
4-4-3 Microprocessor frequency mismatch. Occurs
when the front-side (external) bus speed of a
microprocessor is not 533 MHz. If video is available, a screen message identifies the faulty microprocessor. Replace the
microprocessor. If video is not available, replace microprocessor 1 and then, if the problem
persists, replace microprocessor 2. See "
Installing Microprocessors " in "Installing System
Options."
4-4-4 Cache test failure (defective microprocessor) Remove and reseat the specified microprocessor. See " Installing Microprocessors " in "Installing
System Options." If the problem persists, replace the microprocessor. If the problem persists,
see "
Getting Help ."
NOTE: Warning messages are generated by either the application program or the operating system. See " Finding Software Solutions " and the
documentation that accompanied the operating system or application program for more information on warning messages.
