General checkout  
This general checkout procedure is for Type 6584/6594  
computers.  
Attention  
The drives in the computer you are servicing might  
have been rearranged or the drive startup sequence  
changed. Be extremely careful during write operations  
such as copying, saving, or formatting. Data or  
programs can be overwritten if you select an incorrect  
drive.  
Diagnostic error messages appear when a test program  
finds a problem with a hardware option. For the test  
programs to properly determine if a test Passed, Failed, or  
Aborted, the test programs check the error-return code at  
test completion. See “IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics” on  
page 34.  
General error messages appear if a problem or conflict is  
found by an application program, the operating system, or  
both. For an explanation of these messages, refer to the  
information supplied with that software package.  
Notes  
1. Before replacing any FRUs, ensure the latest  
level of BIOS is installed on the system. A  
down-level BIOS might cause false errors and  
unnecessary replacement of the system board.  
For more information on how to determine and  
obtain the latest level BIOS, see “BIOS levels” on  
page 53.  
2. If multiple error codes are displayed, diagnose  
the first error code displayed.  
3. If the computer hangs with a POST error, go to  
“Symptom-to-FRU index” on page 82.  
4. If the computer hangs and no error is displayed,  
go to “Undetermined problem” on page 104.  
5. If an installed device is not recognized by the  
diagnostics program, that device might be  
defective.  
The power-on default is quick bring-up. To enable  
Enhanced bring-up, select the Start Options in the  
Configuration/Setup Utility program (see “Setup Utility  
program” on page 41) then, enable Power On Status.

Module test menu and hardware  
configuration report  
Depending on the diagnostics version level you are using,  
the installed devices in the computer are verified in one of  
two ways:  
1. At the start of the diagnostic tests, the Module Test  
Menu is displayed. Normally, all installed devices in  
the computer are highlighted on the menu.  
2. At the start of the diagnostic tests, the main menu  
appears. From this menu, select System Info then  
select Hardware Configuration from the next menu.  
Normally, all installed devices in the computer are  
highlighted on this report.  
If an installed device is not recognized by the diagnostics  
program:  
Ÿ
The diagnostic code for the device is not on the  
diagnostic diskette. Run the diagnostics provided  
with that device.  
Ÿ
The missing device is defective or it requires an  
additional diskette or service manual.  
An unrecognizable device is installed.  
A defective device is causing another device not to be  
recognized.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
The SCSI controller failed (on the system board or  
SCSI adapter).  
Use the procedure in “Undetermined problem” on  
page 104 to find the problem.  
If a device is missing from the list, replace it. If this does  
not correct the problem, use the procedure in  
“Undetermined problem” on page 104.

attached to the keyboard, replace the keyboard. If the  
problem remains, replace the system board.  
Printer  
1. Make sure the printer is properly connected and  
powered on.  
2. Run the printer self-test.  
If the printer self-test does not run correctly, the problem is  
in the printer. Refer to the printer service manual.  
If the printer self-test runs correctly, install a wrap plug in  
the parallel port and run the diagnostic tests to determine  
which FRU failed.  
If the diagnostic tests (with the wrap plug installed) do not  
detect a failure, replace the printer cable. If that does not  
correct the problem, replace the system board or adapter  
connected to the printer cable.

Diagnostics and test information  
The following tools are available to help identify and  
resolve hardware-related problems:

Power-on self-test (POST)  
POST Beep Codes  
Error Code Format  
IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics  
Power-on self-test (POST)  
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of  
tests that check the operation of the system and some  
options. This series of tests is called the power-on  
self-test, or POST. POST does the following:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Checks some basic system-board operations  
Checks the memory operation  
Starts the video operation  
Verifies that the diskette drive is working  
Verifies that the hard disk drive is working  
If the POST finishes without detecting any problems, a  
single beep sounds and the first screen of your operating  
system or application program appears.  
Note  
Type 6584/6594 computers default to come up quiet  
(No beep and no memory count and checkpoint code  
display) when no errors are detected by POST.  
To enable Beep and memory count and checkpoint  
code display when a successful POST occurs:  
1. Enable Power on Status in setup. See “Setup  
Utility program” on page 41.  
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears  
on your screen. A single problem can cause several error  
messages to appear. When you correct the cause of the  
first error message, the other error messages probably will  
not appear on the screen the next time you turn on the  
system.  
POST beep codes  
The Power On Self-Test generates a beeping sound to  
indicate successful completion of POST or to indicate that  
the tests detect an error.  
One beep and the appearance of text on the display  
indicates successful completion of the POST. More than  
one beep indicates that the POST detects an error.

Error code format  
This section provides an explanation of the encoded  
non-SCSI and SCSI POST error codes.  
Error messages are displayed on the screen as three, four,  
five, eight, twelve, or thirteen digits. An “X” in an error  
message can be any number or letter. The shorter POST  
errors are highlighted in the Symptom-to-FRU Index.  
Some digits will represent different information for SCSI  
errors versus non-SCSI errors.  
The following figure shows which digits display the shorter  
POST errors. The figure also defines additional SCSI  
information.  
Notes

Non-IBM device error codes and documentation  
supersede this list.  
Duplicate SCSI ID settings will cause misleading  
error symptoms or messages.

Replacing a system board  
Notes  
1. The BIOS and Vital Product Data (VPD) for the  
computer you are servicing must be installed on  
the new system board (FRU) after it is installed in  
the computer. To do this, you must run the  
Flash Update program using the Flash Update  
diskette. See “BIOS levels” on page 53 “Vital  
Product Data” on page 49, and “Flash  
(BIOS/VPD) update procedure” on page 54.  
2. Always ensure the latest level of BIOS is installed  
on the computer. A down level BIOS may cause  
false errors and unnecessary replacement of the  
system board.  
3. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board and is not included with the system  
board FRU. If you are instructed to replace the  
system board, do the following.  
4. Remove the processor from the old system board  
and install it on the new system board.  
5. Remove any of the following installed options on  
the old system board, and install them on the  
new system board.  
Ÿ
Memory modules (RIMM and C-RIMM)  
6. Ensure that the new system board jumper  
settings match the old system board jumper  
settings.  
7. If the new system board does not correct the  
problem, reinstall the options on the old system  
board, reinstall the old system board, then  
replace the processor.

Power-on password: A power-on password denies  
access to the computer by an unauthorized user when the  
computer is powered on. When a power-on password is  
active, the password prompt appears on the screen each  
time the computer is powered on. The computer starts  
after the proper password is entered.  
Removing a power-on password  
To service a computer with an active and unknown  
power-on password, power-off the computer and do the  
following:  
Note  
On some models, this procedure will also remove the  
administrator password.  
1. Unplug the power cord and remove the top cover.  
2. Refer to “System board layout” on page 77 to find the  
recovery jumper.  
3. Move the recovery jumper from 'normal' to 'clear'.  
4. Power-on the computer. The system senses the  
change in the position and erases the password.  
Ÿ
It is necessary to move the jumper back to the  
previous position.  
5. Remind the user to enter a new password when  
service is complete.

Administrator password: The administrator  
password is used to restrict access to the  
Configuration/Setup Utility program. If the administrator  
password is activated, and you do not enter the  
administrator password, the configuration can be viewed  
but not changed.  
Note  
Type 6584/6594 has Enhanced Security Mode. If  
Enhanced Security mode is enabled and there is no  
password given, the computer will act as if Enhanced  
Security is disabled.  
If Enhanced Security is Enabled and an administrator  
password is given, the administrator password must  
be entered to use the computer. If the administrator  
password is lost or forgotten, the system board in the  
computer must be replaced in order to regain access  
to the Configuration/Setup Utility program.  
Administrator password control The  
Administrator password is set in the Setup Configuration.  
Refer to “Setup Utility program” on page 41  
Operating system password: An operating  
system password is very similar to a power-on password  
and denies access to the computer by an unauthorized  
user when the password is activated. The computer is  
unusable until the password is entered and recognized by  
the computer.  
Vital Product Data  
Each computer has a unique Vital Product Data (VPD)  
code stored in the nonvolatile memory on the system  
board. After you replace the system board, the VPD must  
be updated. To update the VPD, see “Flash (BIOS/VPD)  
update procedure” on page 54.  
Management Information Format (MIF)  
Management Information Format (MIF) is a file used to  
maintain a list of the system unit serial number along with  
all serialized components; for example: system board,  
riser card, memory, and processor.  
At the time of computer manufacture, the EPROM will be  
loaded with the serial numbers of the system and all major  
components. The customer will have access to the MIF  
file via the DMI MIF Browser that is installed with the  
preload and is also available on the SSCD provided with  
the system.  
A company called Retain-a-Group is a central data  
warehouse offering serial number data management.  
Retain-a-Group acts as a focal point to law enforcement.  
PC 300 - 6584/6594 49  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The customer has the option to purchase serial number  
information and services from Retain-a-Group. It is the  
customer's responsibility to maintain the MIF file and to  
inform Retain-a-Group of any changes to the file.  
Some customers may request their servicers to assist  
them in maintaining the MIF file when serialized  
components are replaced during hardware service. This  
assistance is between the customer and the servicer. The  
servicer can use the DMI MIF Browser to update the MIF  
information in the EPROM. It is anticipated that some  
servicers might charge for this service.  
To update the EPROM using the DMI MIF Browser:  
1. Click Start from the desktop, then Programs.  
2. Select IBM SystemView Agent.  
3. Select Serial Number Information icon.  
4. Click the plus sign to expand.  
5. Select the component you want to view or edit.  
6. Double click on the component you want to change.  
7. Enter new data in the Value field, then click Apply.  
Alert on LAN2  
Alert on LAN2 provides notification of changes in the  
computer, even when the computer power is turned off.  
Working with DMI and Wake on LAN technologies, Alert on  
LAN2 helps to manage and monitor the hardware and  
software features of the computer. Alert on LAN2  
generates notifications to the server of these occurrences:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ

Symptom-to-FRU index  
The Symptom-to-FRU index lists error symptoms and  
possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first.  
Always begin with “General checkout” on page 24. See  
“IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics error codes” on page 1  
when running diagnostics. This index can also be used to  
help you decide which FRUs to have available when  
servicing a computer. If you are unable to correct the  
problem using this index, go to “Undetermined problem” on  
page 104.  
Notes  
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you have both an error message and an  
incorrect audio response, diagnose the error  
message first.  
If you cannot run the diagnostic tests or you get  
a diagnostic error code when running a test, but  
did receive a POST error message, diagnose the  
POST error message first.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you did not receive any error message, look for  
a description of your error symptoms in the first  
part of this index.  
Check all power supply voltages before you  
replace the system board. (See “Power supply”  
on page 29.)  
Check the hard disk drive jumper settings before  
you replace a hard disk drive. (See “Hard disk  
drive jumper settings” on page 51.)  
Important  
1. Some errors are indicated with a series of beep  
codes. (See “Beep symptoms” on page 83.)  
Type 6584/6594 computers default to come up  
quiet (No beep and no memory count and  
checkpoint code display) when no errors are  
detected by POST. To enable Beep and memory  
count and checkpoint code display when a  
successful POST occurs:  
Ÿ
Enable Power on Status in setup. See  
“Setup Utility program” on page 41.  
2. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board; the processor is not included with  
the system board FRU.

General checkout  
This general checkout procedure is for Type 6866  
computers.  
Attention  
The drives in the computer you are servicing might  
have been rearranged or the drive startup sequence  
changed. Be extremely careful during write operations  
such as copying, saving, or formatting. Data or  
programs can be overwritten if you select an incorrect  
drive.  
Diagnostic error messages appear when a test program  
finds a problem with a hardware option. For the test  
programs to properly determine if a test Passed, Failed, or  
Aborted, the test programs check the error-return code at  
test completion. See “IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics” on  
page 133.  
General error messages appear if a problem or conflict is  
found by an application program, the operating system, or  
both. For an explanation of these messages, refer to the  
information supplied with that software package.

Diagnostics and test information  
The following tools are available to help identify and  
resolve hardware-related problems:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Power-on self-test (POST)  
POST Beep Codes  
Error Code Format  
IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics  
Power-on self-test (POST)  
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of  
tests that check the operation of the system and some  
options. This series of tests is called the power-on  
self-test, or POST. POST does the following:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Checks some basic system-board operations  
Checks the memory operation  
Starts the video operation  
Verifies that the diskette drive is working  
Verifies that the hard disk drive is working  
If the POST finishes without detecting any problems, a  
single beep sounds and the first screen of your operating  
system or application program appears.  
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears  
on your screen. A single problem can cause several error  
messages to appear. When you correct the cause of the  
first error message, the other error messages probably will  
not appear on the screen the next time you turn on the  
system.  
POST beep codes  
The Power On Self-Test generates a beeping sound to  
indicate successful completion of POST or to indicate that  
the tests detect an error.  
One beep and the appearance of text on the display  
indicates successful completion of the POST. More than  
one beep indicates that the POST detects an error.  
Note  
Type 6866 computers default to come up quiet (No  
beep and no memory count and checkpoint code  
display) when no errors are detected by POST.  
To enable Beep and memory count and checkpoint  
code display when a successful POST occurs:  
1. Enable Power on Status in setup. See “Setup  
Utility program” on page 140.

Replacing a system board  
Notes  
1. The BIOS and Vital Product Data (VPD) for the  
computer you are servicing must be installed on  
the new system board (FRU) after it is installed in  
the computer. To do this, you must run the  
Flash Update program using the Flash Update  
diskette. See “BIOS levels” on page 151 “Vital  
Product Data” on page 148, and “Flash  
(BIOS/VPD) update procedure” on page 152.  
2. Always ensure the latest level of BIOS is installed  
on the computer. A down level BIOS may cause  
false errors and unnecessary replacement of the  
system board.  
3. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board and is not included with the system  
board FRU. If you are instructed to replace the  
system board, do the following&:  
a. Remove the processor from the old system  
board and install it on the new system  
board.  
b. Refer to “System board layout” on page 183  
to find the system board rocker switch.  
c. Set switch 1 to the on position.  
d. Power-on the computer. The system  
senses the change in the switch setting and  
resets to the default processor speed (266  
MHz).  
e. Power-off the computer and set switch 1  
back to the off position.  
f. Power-on the computer  
1) Select Advanced Setup from the  
Setup Utility Menu.  
2) Select Processor Speed Control from  
the Advanced Setup menu.  
3) Set the processor speed to match the  
speed of the installed processor.  
4. If the new system board does not correct the  
problem, reinstall the old system board, then  
replace the processor.

password.  
5. Set switch 3 back to the off position.  
6. Remind the user to enter a new password when  
service is complete.  
Administrator password: The administrator  
password is used to restrict access to the  
Configuration/Setup Utility program. If the administrator  
password is activated, and you do not enter the  
administrator password, the configuration can be viewed  
but not changed.  
Note  
Type 6866 has Enhanced Security Mode. If  
Enhanced Security mode is enabled and there is no  
password given, the computer will act as if Enhanced  
Security is disabled.

Administrator password control The  
Administrator password is set in the Setup Configuration.  
Refer to “Setup Utility program” on page 140  
Operating system password: An operating  
system password is very similar to a power-on password  
and denies access to the computer by an unauthorized  
user when the password is activated. The computer is  
unusable until the password is entered and recognized by  
the computer.  
Vital Product Data  
Each computer has a unique Vital Product Data (VPD)  
code stored in the nonvolatile memory on the system  
board. After you replace the system board, the VPD must  
be updated. To update the VPD, see “Flash (BIOS/VPD)  
update procedure” on page 152.  
Alert on LAN2  
Alert on LAN2 provides notification of changes in the  
computer, even when the computer power is turned off.

Type 6866 memory  
Rambus inline memory modules (RIMMs).  
The IBM-installed RIMMs are ECC (error checking and  
correction) RDRAM (Rambus dynamic random access  
memory) modules.  
When installing or replacing RIMMs, take the following  
information into consideration:  
Ÿ
RIMM connectors do not support dual inline memory  
modules (DIMMs)  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Use only PC600 or PC800 RIMMs.  
There are four or eight RIMM memory cards. RIMMs  
must be installed in pairs. The RIMMs installed in a  
RIMM connector pair must be of the same speed, and  
size.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
For four RIMM cards, any connector that does not  
have a RIMM installed must have a continuity RIMM  
(C-RIMM).  
For eight RIMM cards, pairs 1 and 3 must have  
RIMMs or C-RIMMs installed in them. If RIMMs are  
installed in pair 2, RIMMs or C-RIMMs must be  
installed in pair 4. For the arrangement of the RIMM  
connector pairs on the computer memory card, see  
the illustration on page 157.  
Ÿ
Install only ECC RIMMS to enable ECC. If ECC and  
non-ECC memory are used together, the memory will  
function as non-ECC memory.  
Note  
If PC600 and PC800 RIMMs are used together,  
all memory will function at the speed of the  
slowest RIMM.

Symptom-to-FRU index  
The Symptom-to-FRU index lists error symptoms and  
possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first.  
Always begin with “General checkout” on page 124. See  
“IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics error codes” on page 1  
when running diagnostics. This index can also be used to  
help you decide which FRUs to have available when  
servicing a computer. If you are unable to correct the  
problem using this index, go to “Undetermined problem” on  
page 206.  
Notes  
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you have both an error message and an  
incorrect audio response, diagnose the error  
message first.  
If you cannot run the diagnostic tests or you get  
a diagnostic error code when running a test, but  
did receive a POST error message, diagnose the  
POST error message first.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you did not receive any error message, look for  
a description of your error symptoms in the first  
part of this index.  
Check all power supply voltages before you  
replace the system board. (See “Power supply”  
on page 129.)  
Check the hard disk drive jumper settings before  
you replace a hard disk drive. (See “Hard disk  
drive jumper settings” on page 149.)  
Important  
1. Some errors are indicated with a series of beep  
codes. (See “Beep symptoms” on page 186.)  
Type 6866 computers default to come up quiet  
(No beep and no memory count and checkpoint  
code display) when no errors are detected by  
POST. To enable Beep and memory count and  
checkpoint code display when a successful  
POST occurs:  
Ÿ
Enable Power on Status in setup. See  
“Setup Utility program” on page 140.  
2. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board; the processor is not included with  
the system board FRU.

General checkout  
This general checkout procedure is for Type 6867  
computers.  
Attention  
The drives in the computer you are servicing might  
have been rearranged or the drive startup sequence  
changed. Be extremely careful during write operations  
such as copying, saving, or formatting. Data or  
programs can be overwritten if you select an incorrect  
drive.  
Diagnostic error messages appear when a test program  
finds a problem with a hardware option. For the test  
programs to properly determine if a test Passed, Failed, or  
Aborted, the test programs check the error-return code at  
test completion. See “IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics” on  
page 234.  
General error messages appear if a problem or conflict is  
found by an application program, the operating system, or  
both. For an explanation of these messages, refer to the  
information supplied with that software package.  
Notes  
1. Before replacing any FRUs, ensure the latest  
level of BIOS is installed on the system. A  
down-level BIOS might cause false errors and  
unnecessary replacement of the system board.

Ÿ
Power-on self-test (POST)  
POST Beep Codes  
Error Code Format  
IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics  
Power-on self-test (POST)  
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of  
tests that check the operation of the system and some  
options. This series of tests is called the power-on  
self-test, or POST. POST does the following:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Checks some basic system-board operations  
Checks the memory operation  
Starts the video operation  
Verifies that the diskette drive is working  
Verifies that the hard disk drive is working  
If the POST finishes without detecting any problems, a  
single beep sounds and the first screen of your operating  
system or application program appears.  
Note  
Type 6867 computers default to come up quiet (No  
beep and no memory count and checkpoint code  
display) when no errors are detected by POST.  
To enable Beep and memory count and checkpoint  
code display when a successful POST occurs:  
1. Enable Power on Status in setup. See “Setup  
Utility program” on page 241.  
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears  
on your screen. A single problem can cause several error  
messages to appear. When you correct the cause of the  
first error message, the other error messages probably will  
not appear on the screen the next time you turn on the  
system.  
POST beep codes  
The Power On Self-Test generates a beeping sound to  
indicate successful completion of POST or to indicate that  
the tests detect an error.  
One beep and the appearance of text on the display  
indicates successful completion of the POST. More than  
one beep indicates that the POST detects an error.

Error code format  
This section provides an explanation of the encoded  
non-SCSI and SCSI POST error codes.  
Error messages are displayed on the screen as three, four,  
five, eight, twelve, or thirteen digits. An “X” in an error  
message can be any number or letter. The shorter POST  
errors are highlighted in the Symptom-to-FRU Index.  
Some digits will represent different information for SCSI  
errors versus non-SCSI errors.  
The following figure shows which digits display the shorter  
POST errors. The figure also defines additional SCSI  
information.  
Notes

Replacing a system board  
Notes  
1. The BIOS and Vital Product Data (VPD) for the  
computer you are servicing must be installed on  
the new system board (FRU) after it is installed in  
the computer. To do this, you must run the  
Flash Update program using the Flash Update  
diskette. See “BIOS levels” on page 252 “Vital  
Product Data” on page 248, and “Flash  
(BIOS/VPD) update procedure” on page 253.  
2. Always ensure the latest level of BIOS is installed  
on the computer. A down level BIOS may cause  
false errors and unnecessary replacement of the  
system board.  
3. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board and is not included with the system  
board FRU. If you are instructed to replace the  
system board, do the following.  
4. Remove the processor from the old system board  
and install it on the new system board.  
5. Remove any of the following installed options on  
the old system board, and install them on the  
new system board.  
Ÿ
Memory modules (RIMM and C-RIMM)  
6. Ensure that the new system board jumper  
settings match the old system board jumper  
settings.  
7. If the new system board does not correct the  
problem, reinstall the options on the old system  
board, reinstall the old system board, then  
replace the processor.

Power-on password: A power-on password denies  
access to the computer by an unauthorized user when the  
computer is powered on. When a power-on password is  
active, the password prompt appears on the screen each  
time the computer is powered on. The computer starts  
after the proper password is entered.  
Removing a power-on password  
To service a computer with an active and unknown  
power-on password, power-off the computer and do the  
following:  
Note  
On some models, this procedure will also remove the  
administrator password.  
1. Unplug the power cord and remove the top cover.  
2. Refer to “System board layout” on page 269 to find  
the recovery jumper.  
3. Move the recovery jumper from 'normal' to 'clear'.  
4. Power-on the computer. The system senses the  
change in the position and erases the password.  
Ÿ
It is necessary to move the jumper back to the  
previous position.  
5. Remind the user to enter a new password when  
service is complete.  
IntelliStation - 6867 247  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Administrator password: The administrator  
password is used to restrict access to the  
Configuration/Setup Utility program. If the administrator  
password is activated, and you do not enter the  
administrator password, the configuration can be viewed  
but not changed.  
Note  
Type 6867 has Enhanced Security Mode. If  
Enhanced Security mode is enabled and there is no  
password given, the computer will act as if Enhanced  
Security is disabled.  
If Enhanced Security is Enabled and an administrator  
password is given, the administrator password must  
be entered to use the computer. If the administrator  
password is lost or forgotten, the system board in the  
computer must be replaced in order to regain access  
to the Configuration/Setup Utility program.  
Administrator password control The  
Administrator password is set in the Setup Configuration.  
Refer to “Setup Utility program” on page 241  
Operating system password: An operating  
system password is very similar to a power-on password  
and denies access to the computer by an unauthorized  
user when the password is activated. The computer is  
unusable until the password is entered and recognized by  
the computer.  
Vital Product Data  
Each computer has a unique Vital Product Data (VPD)  
code stored in the nonvolatile memory on the system  
board. After you replace the system board, the VPD must  
be updated. To update the VPD, see “Flash (BIOS/VPD)  
update procedure” on page 253.  
Management Information Format (MIF)  
Management Information Format (MIF) is a file used to  
maintain a list of the system unit serial number along with  
all serialized components; for example: system board,  
riser card, memory, and processor.  
At the time of computer manufacture, the EPROM will be  
loaded with the serial numbers of the system and all major  
components. The customer will have access to the MIF  
file via the DMI MIF Browser that is installed with the  
preload and is also available on the SSCD provided with  
the system.  
A company called Retain-a-Group is a central data  
warehouse offering serial number data management.  
Retain-a-Group acts as a focal point to law enforcement.  
248 IBM PC 300/IntelliStation Vol 3 HMM  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The customer has the option to purchase serial number  
information and services from Retain-a-Group. It is the  
customer's responsibility to maintain the MIF file and to  
inform Retain-a-Group of any changes to the file.  
Some customers may request their servicers to assist  
them in maintaining the MIF file when serialized  
components are replaced during hardware service. This  
assistance is between the customer and the servicer. The  
servicer can use the DMI MIF Browser to update the MIF  
information in the EPROM. It is anticipated that some  
servicers might charge for this service.  
To update the EPROM using the DMI MIF Browser:  
1. Click Start from the desktop, then Programs.  
2. Select IBM SystemView Agent.  
3. Select Serial Number Information icon.  
4. Click the plus sign to expand.  
5. Select the component you want to view or edit.  
6. Double click on the component you want to change.  
7. Enter new data in the Value field, then click Apply.  
Alert on LAN2  
Alert on LAN2 provides notification of changes in the  
computer, even when the computer power is turned off.  
Working with DMI and Wake on LAN technologies, Alert on  
LAN2 helps to manage and monitor the hardware and  
software features of the computer. Alert on LAN2  
generates notifications to the server of these occurrences:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ

Power management  
Power management reduces the power consumption of  
certain components of the computer such as the system  
power supply, processor, hard disk drives, and some  
monitors. Advanced Power Management and Rapid  
Resume Manager are features of some personal  
computers.  
Advanced Configuration and Power  
Interface (ACPI) BIOS: Being an ACPI BIOS  
system, the operating system is allowed to control the  
power management features of the computer and the  
setting for Advanced Power Management (APM) BIOS  
mode are ignored. Not all operating systems support ACPI  
BIOS mode.  
Advanced Power Management: Energy-saving  
settings can be viewed and changed by using the  
Advanced Power Management menu in the  
Configuration/Setup Utility program.  
Attention  
If a device, such as a monitor, does not have  
power-management capabilities, it can be damaged  
when exposed to a reduced-power state. Before  
making energy-saving selections for the monitor,  
check the documentation supplied with the monitor to  
see if it supports Display Power Management  
Signaling (DPMS).  
Automatic Hardware Power Management  
features: Automatic Hardware Power Management  
can reduce the power states of the computer, processor,  
and monitor (if monitor supports DPMS) if they are inactive  
for a predetermined length of time.  
There are three levels of specified time that the computer  
must be inactive before the power management options  
that are selected take effect. Select the amount of time  
that is offered within each level.  
Level 1  
Level 2  
Level 3  
Set time from 5 minutes to 4 hours.  
Set time from 10 minutes to 5 hours.  
Set time from 15 minutes to 6 hours.  
At each level, you can define the amount of energy  
savings by specifying values for the following options:

Symptom-to-FRU index  
The Symptom-to-FRU index lists error symptoms and  
possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first.  
Always begin with “General checkout” on page 224. See  
“IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics error codes” on page 1  
when running diagnostics. This index can also be used to  
help you decide which FRUs to have available when  
servicing a computer. If you are unable to correct the  
problem using this index, go to “Undetermined problem” on  
page 294.  
Notes  
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you have both an error message and an  
incorrect audio response, diagnose the error  
message first.  
If you cannot run the diagnostic tests or you get  
a diagnostic error code when running a test, but  
did receive a POST error message, diagnose the  
POST error message first.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
If you did not receive any error message, look for  
a description of your error symptoms in the first  
part of this index.  
Check all power supply voltages before you  
replace the system board. (See “Power supply”  
on page 229.)  
Check the hard disk drive jumper settings before  
you replace a hard disk drive. (See “Hard disk  
drive jumper settings” on page 250.)  
Important  
1. Some errors are indicated with a series of beep  
codes. (See “Beep symptoms” on page 273.)  
Type 6867 computers default to come up quiet  
(No beep and no memory count and checkpoint  
code display) when no errors are detected by  
POST. To enable Beep and memory count and  
checkpoint code display when a successful  
POST occurs:  
Ÿ
Enable Power on Status in setup. See  
“Setup Utility program” on page 241.  
2. The processor is a separate FRU from the  
system board; the processor is not included with  
the system board FRU.

Safety information  
The following section contains the safety information that  
you need to be familiar with before servicing an IBM  
mobile computer.  
General safety  
Follow these rules to ensure general safety:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Observe good housekeeping in the area of the  
machines during and after maintenance.  
When lifting any heavy object:  
1. Ensure you can stand safely without slipping.  
2. Distribute the weight of the object equally  
between your feet.  
3. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly  
or twist when you attempt to lift.  
4. Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg  
muscles; this action removes the strain from the  
muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any  
objects that weigh more than 16 kg (35 lb) or  
objects that you think are too heavy for you.  
Do not perform any action that causes hazards to the  
customer, or that makes the equipment unsafe.  
Before you start the machine, ensure that other  
service representatives and the customer's personnel  
are not in a hazardous position.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Place removed covers and other parts in a safe  
place, away from all personnel, while you are  
servicing the machine.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Keep your tool case away from walk areas so that  
other people will not trip over it.  
Do not wear loose clothing that can be trapped in the  
moving parts of a machine. Ensure that your sleeves  
are fastened or rolled up above your elbows. If your  
hair is long, fasten it.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing  
or fasten it with a nonconductive clip, approximately 8  
centimeters (3 inches) from the end.  
Do not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses,  
or metal fasteners for your clothing.  
Remember: Metal objects are good electrical  
conductors.  
Ÿ
Wear safety glasses when you are: hammering,  
drilling soldering, cutting wire, attaching springs, using  
solvents, or working in any other conditions that might  
be hazardous to your eyes.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards,  
labels, and ground wires. Replace any safety device  
that is worn or defective.  
Reinstall all covers correctly before returning the  
machine to the customer.

Electrical safety  
Observe the following rules when working on electrical  
equipment.  
Important  
Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some  
hand tools have handles covered with a soft material  
that does not insulate you when working with live  
electrical currents.  
Many customers have, near their equipment, rubber  
floor mats that contain small conductive fibers to  
decrease electrostatic discharges. Do not use this  
type of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.  
Ÿ
Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch,  
disconnecting switch, or electrical outlet. If an  
electrical accident occurs, you can then operate the  
switch or unplug the power cord quickly.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Do not work alone under hazardous conditions or  
near equipment that has hazardous voltages.  
Disconnect all power before:  
Performing a mechanical inspection  
Working near power supplies  
Removing or installing main units  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the  
power cord. If you cannot unplug it, ask the customer  
to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the  
machine and to lock the wall box in the off position.  
If you need to work on a machine that has exposed  
electrical circuits, observe the following precautions:  
Ensure that another person, familiar with the  
power-off controls, is near you.  
Remember: Another person must be there to  
switch off the power, if necessary.  
Use only one hand when working with  
powered-on electrical equipment; keep the other  
hand in your pocket or behind your back.  
Remember: There must be a complete circuit to  
cause electrical shock. By observing the above  
rule, you may prevent a current from passing  
through your body.  
When using testers, set the controls correctly  
and use the approved probe leads and  
accessories for that tester.  
Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally,  
if necessary) to insulate you from grounds such  
as metal floor strips and machine frames.  
Observe the special safety precautions when you  
work with very high voltages; these instructions are in

Ÿ
Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand  
tools for safe operational condition.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Do not use worn or broken tools and testers.  
Never assume that power has been disconnected  
from a circuit. First, check that it has been  
powered-off.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Always look carefully for possible hazards in your  
work area. Examples of these hazards are moist  
floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power  
surges, and missing safety grounds.  
Do not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective  
surface of a plastic dental mirror. The surface is  
conductive; such touching can cause personal injury  
and machine damage.  
Do not service the following parts with the power on  
when they are removed from their normal operating  
places in a machine:  
Power supply units  
Pumps  
Blowers and fans  
Motor generators  
and similar units. (This practice ensures correct  
grounding of the units.)  
Ÿ
Ÿ
If an electrical accident occurs:  
Use caution; do not become a victim  
yourself.  
Switch off power.  
Send another person to get medical aid.  
Asset ID allows the computer to be scanned by  
various radio frequency emitting devices supplied by  
independent companies. Asset ID is intended for use  
only with radio frequency equipment that meets  
ANSI/IEEE C95.1 1992 RF Radiation Limits.  
Safety Inspection Guide  
The intent of this inspection guide is to assist you in  
identifying potentially unsafe conditions on these products.  
Each machine, as it was designed and built, had required  
safety items installed to protect users and service  
personnel from injury. This guide addresses only those  
items. However, good judgment should be used to identify  
potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-IBM  
features or options not covered by this inspection guide.  
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine  
how serious the apparent hazard could be and whether  
you can continue without first correcting the problem.  
Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they  
present:  
Ÿ
Electrical hazards, especially primary power (primary  
voltage on the frame can cause serious or fatal  
electrical shock).

Ÿ
Ÿ
Explosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or  
bulging capacitor  
Mechanical hazards, such as loose or missing  
hardware  
The guide consists of a series of steps presented in a  
checklist. Begin the checks with the power off, and the  
power cord disconnected.  
Checklist:  
1. Check exterior covers for damage (loose, broken, or  
sharp edges).  
2. Power-off the computer. Disconnect the power cord.  
3. Check the power cord for:  
a. A third-wire ground connector in good condition.  
Use a meter to measure third-wire ground  
continuity for 0.1 ohm or less between the  
external ground pin and frame ground.  
b. The power cord should be the appropriate type  
as specified in the parts listings.  
c. Insulation must not be frayed or worn.  
4. Remove the cover.  
5. Check for any obvious non-IBM alterations. Use  
good judgment as to the safety of any non-IBM  
alterations.  
6. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe  
conditions, such as metal filings, contamination, water  
or other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.  
7. Check for worn, frayed, or pinched cables.  
8. Check that the power-supply cover fasteners (screws  
or rivets) have not been removed or tampered with.

Handling electrostatic  
discharge-sensitive devices  
Any computer part containing transistors or integrated  
circuits (ICs) should be considered sensitive to electrostatic  
discharge (ESD). ESD damage can occur when there is a  
difference in charge between objects. Protect against ESD  
damage by equalizing the charge so that the machine, the  
part, the work mat, and the person handling the part are all  
at the same charge.  
Notes:  
1. Use product-specific ESD procedures when they  
exceed the requirements noted here.  
2. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use  
have been certified (ISO 9000) as fully effective.  
When handling ESD-sensitive parts:  
Ÿ
Keep the parts in protective packages until they are  
inserted into the product.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Avoid contact with other people.  
Wear a grounded wrist strap against your skin to  
eliminate static on your body.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Prevent the part from touching your clothing. Most  
clothing is insulative and retains a charge even when  
you are wearing a wrist strap.  
Use the black side of a grounded work mat to provide  
a static-free work surface. The mat is especially  
useful when handling ESD-sensitive devices.  
Use the ESD ground cord, FRU 25F9727, to protect  
the computer against ESD.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Select a grounding system, such as those listed  
below, to provide protection that meets the specific  
service requirement.  
Note: The use of a grounding system is desirable  
but not required to protect against ESD  
damage.  
Attach the ESD ground clip to any frame ground,  
ground braid, or green-wire ground.  
Use an ESD common ground or reference point  
when working on a double-insulated or  
battery-operated system. You can use coax or  
connector-outside shells on these systems.  
Use the round ground-prong of the AC plug on  
AC-operated computers.  
Grounding requirements  
Electrical grounding of the computer is required for  
operator safety and correct system function. Proper  
grounding of the electrical outlet can be verified by a  
certified electrician.

Problem determination tips  
Due to the variety of hardware and software combinations  
that can be encountered, use the following information to  
assist you in problem determination.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Verify any recent hardware changes. See “Hardware  
considerations” on page 342.  
Verify any recent software changes. See “Software  
considerations” on page 343.  
Verify the BIOS is at the latest level. See “BIOS” on  
page 343.  
Verify the drivers are at latest levels. See “Drivers”  
on page 343.  
Verify the Configuration matches hardware. See  
“System resource conflicts” on page 344.  
Verify the Diagnostic diskette is at latest level. See  
“File updates” on page 342.  
As you go through problem determination, consider these  
questions:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Do diagnostics fail?  
What, when, where, single, or multiple systems?  
Is the failure repeatable?  
Has this configuration ever worked?  
If it has been working, what changes were made prior  
to it failing?  
Ÿ
Is this the original reported failure?  
Important  
To eliminate confusion, systems are considered  
identical only if they:  
1. Are the exact machine type and model  
2. Have the same BIOS level  
3. Have the same adapters/attachments in the  
same locations  
4. Have the same address  
jumpers/terminators/cabling  
5. Have the same software versions and levels  
6. Have the same Reference/Diagnostics Diskette  
(version)  
7. Have the same configuration options set in the  
system  
8. Have the same setup for the operation system  
control files  
Comparing the configuration and software set-up  
between “working and non-working” systems will often  
lead to problem resolution.

Hardware considerations  
Use the following tools to help identify and resolve  
hardware-related problems:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Power-on self-test (POST)  
POST Beep codes  
Test programs  
Error messages  
POST does the following:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Checks some basic system board operations  
Checks the memory operation  
Starts the video operation  
Verifies that the diskette drive is working  
Verifies that the hard disk drive is working  
Use the test programs that come with this HMM or with the  
system you are servicing to test the IBM components of  
the system and some external devices. Also, from the  
DOS command or from OS/2 Utilities, use the CHKDSK  
command to check and repair hard disk data allocation  
errors.  
Error messages generated by the software, (the operating  
system or application programs), generally are text  
messages, however, error messages can be text, numeric,  
or both text and numeric.  
Any time there is an error message indicating a problem  
with the system, follow the General Checkout procedures  
in this HMM to resolve the problem.  
Basically, there are five types of error messages:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
POST error messages are displayed when the  
POST finds problems with the hardware or detects a  
change in the hardware configuration.  
POST Beep codes are sounds emitted from the  
speaker if the POST finds a problem. One beep  
indicates the POST completed successfully. Multiple  
beeps indicate a problem was found.  
Ÿ
Diagnostic error messages are displayed when a  
test program finds a problem with a hardware  
component.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Software-generated error messages are displayed if  
a problem or conflict is found by an application  
program, the operating system, or both. For an  
explanation of these messages, refer to the  
information supplied with the installed software  
package. Also, refer to “Software considerations.”  
Multiple messages occur when the first error causes  
additional errors. Follow the suggested action of the  
first error displayed.  
Software considerations  
Suspect a software failure if:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Hardware diagnostics run error-free.  
Swapping hardware components fails to isolate the  
problem.  
A software problem might be the result of a mismatch  
between the hardware and the operating system  
device drivers or direct drivers.  
BIOS: The BIOS acts as an interface between the  
system hardware, application software, and the  
operating system.  
BIOS contains the instructions to operate the basic system  
components:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Keyboard  
Serial and parallel ports  
Diskette drive  
Hard disk drive  
VGA display  
Clock  
Memory controller  
The BIOS then starts the IPL or Boot functions.  
Drivers: Device drivers are the BIOS for additional  
hardware. Device drivers are the communicators of the  
hardware assignments to the operating system, including:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
IRQ level  
DMA channel  
I/O address  
ROM or RAM  
Some device drivers like HIMEM.SYS are position  
sensitive and must be placed before other device drivers in  
the CONFIG.SYS file.  
All device drivers are not found in the CONFIG.SYS file.  
Advanced operating systems use .INI files to setup and  
start devices.  
Device drivers can access the hardware five ways.  
Ÿ
Operating system direct to hardware using a  
direct driver. Direct drivers, which bypass BIOS,  
Related Service Information 343

have the advantage of faster throughput, but the  
disadvantage of limited error-handling capability and  
reduced software and hardware compatibility and  
flexibility. This method is not used in the IBM PC  
Series systems.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Operating system to BIOS to hardware. This is the  
recommended way. It's the most flexible because it's  
independent of the hardware.  
Applications to operating system to BIOS to  
hardware. This method is inflexible and operating  
system dependent.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Applications to BIOS to hardware. This method  
has some flexibility but it is BIOS dependent.  
Applications to hardware. This method is hardware  
dependent and very inflexible, however, it is very fast,  
very efficient, and it has no overhead.  
Adding adapters to the system  
When adapters are added to the system, an area in  
memory has to be allocated to run its programs. This can  
be done with either hardware switches or software  
mapping.  
If there is a conflict in software mapping:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
The first device to attach to an IRQ, DMA, I/O  
Address, or RAM location will probably function. The  
second device will not be found.  
Standalone diagnostics might function properly  
because the device that was found is the only device  
running.  
Software configuration conflicts occur when:  
Ÿ
Hardware is configured differently then the software  
using it expects it to be.  
Ÿ
Hardware memory address space is in conflict with  
memory used by the application software.  
System resource conflicts  
System failures occur when there are system resource  
conflicts with the:  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Interrupt Request Queue (IRQ)  
Direct Memory Access (DMA)  
I/O Address  
ROM and RAM Addresses  
IRQ:  
Ÿ
Assigns a unique interrupt request line to every I/O  
device (line numbers range from 0 to 15).  
Interrupts the processor to force it to service the  
request.  
Handles interrupts on a priority basis (low numbers  
have the highest priority).  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Ÿ
Queues interrupt request.  
344 IBM PC 300/IntelliStation Vol 3 HMM  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
IRQ conflicts occur when there are multiple assignments  
to the same interrupt level. If there is an IRQ conflict,  
the system will hang. Use the systems diagnostics to  
check for multiple assignments to the same interrupt level  
before replacing any hardware component.  
DMA:  
Ÿ
Accesses the memory by bypassing the  
processor, which allows the processor more time for  
applications and programs.  
Ÿ
Ÿ
Accesses memory directly from the serial and parallel  
ports on some systems.  
Accesses memory directly from some adapters  
using a DMA channel, which allows the adapter to  
operate faster.  
Ÿ
Provides from 4 to 15 DMA channels, the number  
varies depending on the system.  
If multiple assignments of the same DMA channel  
occur, the system will hang. Use the system diagnostics  
to check for multiple assignments to the same DMA  
channel before replacing any hardware components.  
I/O Address:  
A unique I/O address is assigned to each system  
component.  
If multiple assignments of the same I/O address occur, the  
system will hang. Use the DOS MEM command to check  
for multiple assignments to the same I/O address before  
replacing any hardware component.  
ROM and RAM Addresses:  
Adapter cards with processors can contain RAM and ROM.  
If the adapter cards have onboard memory, the:  
Ÿ
ROM contains operating instructions for the adapter  
I/O.  
Ÿ
RAM is used for buffering.  
Two adapters using the same memory area will cause  
a failure. This failure might appear as a hardware failure.  
The IRQ levels, DMA channels, I/O address, and ROM  
and RAM addresses all become potential conflicts and  
system problems. When conflicts arise, they might show  
up as system hangs, lost or missing devices, incorrect or  
bad data, or failing diagnostics. Always eliminate  
conflicts in these areas before replacing any hardware  
components.
