Troubleshooting
■ Reconfigure your computer after installing a non–plug and play 
option. Refer to “Solving Hardware Installation Problems” on 
page 2-7 for instructions.
■ Be sure that all the needed device drivers have been installed. For 
example, if you have connected a printer, you need to install a 
printer driver.
■ Take out all removable media from the removable media drives 
when you turn on your system.
Ä
CAUTION: When the computer is plugged into an AC power source, 
there is always power applied to the system board. You must disconnect 
the power cord from the power source before opening the computer to 
prevent system board or component damage.
