If you think the problem may be caused by a loose physical

connection inside the computer, follow these steps:

1. Remove any diskettes and then turn off your peripheral

devices and your computer.

2. Disconnect the computer’s power cord and peripheral

device cables and then remove the computer’s cover, as

described in Chapter 4.

3. Ground yourself by touching the inside back panel of the

computer case before you perform the next step.

4. Check to be sure all of the internal cable connections are

secure and that the processor board and any option

cards are completely seated in their connectors. Then

press down firmly, but gently, on each socketed chip on

the main system board to ensure that they are also

completely seated.

5. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the

peripheral device and power cables, as described in

Chapter 4.

6. Turn on your system and try booting it again.

If the computer still does not load your operating system,

contact your dealer.
