iv Hardware Maintenance Manual

Chapter 1. About this manual
This manual contains service and reference information for IBM
®
computer Type
6029.
This manual is divided into product service sections and a related service section,
as follows:
vThe product service sections include procedures for isolating problems to a FRU,
a Symptom-to-FRU Index, additional service information and an illustrated parts
catalog.
vThe related service section includes safety notices and safety information, and
problem determination tips.
Note:
This manual is intended for trained servicers who are familiar with IBM Personal
Computer products. Use this manual along with advanced diagnostic tests to troubleshoot
problems effectively.
Before servicing an IBM product, be sure to review the “Safety information”on page 93.
Important Safety Information
Be sure to read all caution and danger statements in this book before performing
any of the instructions.
Prenez connaissance de toutes les consignes de type Attention et Danger avant de
procéder aux opérations décrites par les instructions.
Lesen Sie alle Sicherheitshinweise, bevor Sie eine Anweisung ausführen.
Accertarsi di leggere tutti gli avvisi di attenzione e di pericolo prima di effettuare
qualsiasi operazione.
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2001 1

Leia todas as instruções de cuidado e perigo antes de executar qualquer operação.
Lea atentamente todas las declaraciones de precaución y peligro ante de llevar a
cabo cualquier operación.
2Hardware Maintenance Manual

Chapter 2. General Checkout
This general checkout procedure is for Type 6029 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
“Diagnostics”on page 14.
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:
vType 6029 computers default to come up quiet (no beep and no memory count and
checkpoint code display) when no errors are detected by POST.
vTo enable beep and memory count and checkpoint code display when a successful POST
occurs, do the following:
1. Select Start Options in the Configuration/Setup Utility program (see “Setup Utility
program”on page 12).
2. Set Power-On Self-Test to Enhanced.
vBefore replacing any FRUs, ensure that 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 89.
vIf multiple error codes are displayed, diagnose the first error code displayed.
vIf the computer hangs with a POST error, go to ″Symptom-to-FRU Index″on page 39.
vIf the computer hangs and no error is displayed, go to “Undetermined problems”on
page 79.
vIf an installed device is not recognized by the diagnostics program, that device might be
defective.
001
1. Power-off the computer and all external devices.
2. Check all cables and power cords.
3. Make sure the system board is seated properly.
4. Set all display controls to the middle position.
5. Power-on all external devices.
6. Power-on the computer.
7. Check for the following response:
vReadable instructions or the Main Menu.
DID YOU RECEIVE THE CORRECT RESPONSE?
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2001 3

If NO, continue to 002.
If YES, proceed to 003.
002
If the Power Management feature is enabled, do the following:
1. Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program (see “Setup Utility program”on
page 12)
2. Select Power Management from the Configuration/Setup Utility program
menu.
3. Select APM.
4. Be sure APM BIOS Mode is set to Disabled. If it is not, press Left Arrow (})or
Right Arrow (Æ) to change the setting.
5. Select Automatic Hardware Power Management.
6. Set Automatic Hardware Power Management to Disabled.
7. If the problem persists, continue to 003.
003
Run the Diagnostic programs. If necessary, refer to “Diagnostics”on page 14.
vIf you receive an error, replace the part that the diagnostic program calls out or
go to ″Symptom-to-FRU Index″on page 39.
vIf the test stops and you cannot continue, replace the last device tested.

Navigating through the diagnostics programs
Use the cursor movement keys to navigate within the menus.
vThe Enter key is used to select a menu item.
vThe Esc key is used to back up to the previous menu.
vFor online help select F1.
Running diagnostics tests
There are four ways to run the diagnostic tests.
1. Using the cursor movement keys, highlight Run Normal Test or Run Quick
Test from the Diagnostics menu and then press Enter.
This will automatically run a pre-defined group of tests from each test category.
Run Normal Test runs a more extensive set of tests than does Run Quick Test
and takes longer to execute.
2. Press F5 to automatically run all selected tests in all categories. See ″Test
Selection″.
3. From within a test category, press Ctrl-Enter to automatically run only the
selected tests in that category. See ″Test Selection″.
4. Using the cursor movement keys, highlight a single test within a test category,
then press Enter. This will run only that test.
Press Esc at any time to stop the testing process.
Test results, (N/A, PASSED, FAILED, ABORTED), are displayed in the field beside
the test description and in the test log. See “Viewing the test log”on page 17.
Test selection
To select one or more tests, use the following procedure.
1. Open the corresponding test category.
2. Using the cursor movement keys, highlight the desired test.
3. Press the space bar.
A selected test is marked by >>. Pressing the space bar again de-selects a test
and removes the chevron.
