Troubleshooting Procedures

Problem

Possible solution

Server powers on,
but the monitor does
not.

• Is the Power button for the monitor turned on?
• Is the monitor power cord connected to a wall outlet?
• Does the wall outlet have power? Test by plugging in another

device.

CD or DVD does not
eject from the media
tray when you press
the Eject button.

• Move the mouse or press any key on the keyboard. The drive

might be in low power mode.

• Use the utility software installed on your server to eject the CD.
• Make sure that the media in the device is not in use and is not

mounted by the operating system.

No video displays
on the monitor
screen.

• Is the monitor cable attached to the video connector?
• Does the monitor work when connected to another system?
• If you have another monitor, does it work when connected to the

original system?

• If, after POST and BIOS complete, you no longer see video output

on your monitor and only see a flashing cursor, check the
configuration of the operating system to determine if it is
configured to redirect its output exclusively over the serial line.
