Controller Problems

You see a

controller

error for

the

hard disk drive controller

or the I/O port controllers when you start your system.

The indicated controller on your system board may be faulty.

If you have an option card with a controller that will work with

your device, you can install it and change the jumper settings

on the system board to disable the built-in controller. You can

then continue to use your system until it is convenient for you

to have it serviced.

External Cache Problems

The

cache displayed

by

power-on

diagnostics program

is incorrect.

You may have installed the external cache chips incorrectly.

They may be the wrong type, or they may not be inserted all

the way.

Also, you may not have changed your SETUP program to

recognize the new cache. Make sure you have set the

External Cache

option to

Enable

and set both the

Shadow BIOS ROM

and the

Shadow Video

ROM options to

Cacheable

or

WP-Shadow.

See Chapter 3 for information on installing external cache and

Chapter 1 for instructions for using the SETUP program.
