Safety Information The construction of the IBM Aptiva Personal Computer provides extra protection against the risk of electrical shock. This computer has a power cord with a three-prong plug that is required to ground metal parts. It is the responsibility of the person installing the computer to connect it to a properly grounded electrical outlet.
Safety Notices (Multi-Lingual Translations) The safety notices in this section are provided in the following languages: English Brazilian/Portuguese Chinese French German Hungarian Italian Russian Slo.
Safety Notice 1 Before removing any FRU, power-off the computer, unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, then disconnect any interconnecting cables.
Safety Notice 2 The lithium battery can cause a fire, explosion, or severe burn. Do not recharge it, remove its polarized connector, disassemble it, heat it above 100°C (212°F), incinerate it, or expose its cell contents to water. Dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or regulations.
Safety Notice 2 Continued La batteria di supporto e una batteria al litio e puo incendiarsi, esplodere o procurare gravi ustioni.

Chapter Description This chapter contains general information about the contents of this manual, product descriptions, and other information useful when servicing the product. Diagnostic Information The diagnostic information contains the check procedures you use to diagnose and isolate product failures.
Using the Check Procedures Failing Parts or Assemblies: The check procedures generally help you trace a problem to one part or assembly. The last step of the specific check procedure you are using indicates that a part or assembly is failing. You should inspect the part or assembly before you decide to replace it.
Noncritical malfunctions cause incorrect results that might not be apparent to the user. An example of a noncritical error is a memory module failure. If a noncritical error occurs, an error code is displayed, and the testing is stopped. Testing can be continued on a noncritical error by pressing the Esc key.
Appendix: Model Configurations and FRU Part Numbers This appendix contains tables, listed by country, of models and FRU part numbers. Refer to this when ordering FRUs or to determine the part number of the system board or DIMM installed in the machine you are servicing.

Setup Utility The Setup Utility lets you view and change important information about the computer and its hardware. Using the Setup Utility You might need to use the Setup Utility in the following sit.
The Setup Utility screens display the type of information shown here. The actual screens on the computer might look slightly different, but they operate the same way. Here are the keys you use to move through and make changes to the Setup Utility screens.
IBM SurePath Setup Utility -------------------------- Main Menu ------------------------ Select a Menu: System Information Video Information Audio Information Disk Drives Input/Output Ports Power Management Plug and Play Startup Options Model Information Date and Time Advanced Options Figure 1-1.
If you add or change a drive, you must select the correct drive type on this screen. If you are adding a hard disk or CD/DVD-ROM to the computer, see “System Board Layout—Type A-1” on page 5-2 and “System Board Layout—Type A-2” on page 5-5.
Power Management can: Put the computer in a Suspend mode to conserve energy when you have not used the mouse, keyboard, or hard disk for an amount of time you select. Automatically Resume the computer when the phone rings so that the computer can receive a fax or take a message.
Startup Options: This screen provides information about the computer power-on (startup) sequence. When you power the computer on, it looks for the operating system files. Use the Startup Sequence option to tell the computer where to look for these files.
Cache memory is special buffer storage that holds frequently used instructions and data, and works faster than main storage. With cache memory installed, the applications and programs run faster. You can disable cache memory to slow down the computer.

Introduction This section explains the diagnostic aids that are available for troubleshooting problems on the system. Power-On Self Test Each time you power-on the system, the power-on self test (POST) is initiated. The POST takes up to 120 seconds to complete (with Power Management disabled or not installed), depending on the options installed.
6. The system attempts to load the operating system as customized. If an operating system is not found, a graphic message (icon) is displayed requesting the user to insert a diskette into drive A and press the F1 key to resume operation. Diagnostics and Utilities CD The Diagnostics and Utilities program comes on a CD packaged with this book.
Creating a Diagnostics Bootable Diskette The Diagnostics and Utilities CD allows you to create a bootable advanced diagnostics diskette. This permits the flexibility of loading the diagnostics program from either the CD/DVD-ROM drive or the Diskette drive.
5. If any POST errors appear after POST, make a note of the errors and press the Esc key. A message will display on the screen saying that due to disk space constraints, no mouse driver has been included in the diskette. One is available on the Diagnostics and Utilities CD (MOUSE.
Diagnostic Test Programs The test programs on the Diagnostics CD include the following features: Feature Description Easy Test Diagnostics Automatic test of major components of the system.
Error Messages Messages generated by the software—the operating system or application programs—generally are text messages, but they also can be numeric.
Using the Advanced Diagnostic Test Programs The test programs provide advanced functions and utilities for users and service or support professionals to troubleshoot even the most difficult problems.
Command Line Options To enter PC-Doctor commands: Note: Before beginning, ensure that Suspend Timer is disabled in the Setup Utility. 1. Install the Diagnostics and Utilities CD in the CD/DVD-ROM drive. 2. Power-off, then power-on the system unit. 3. Do not press F1 during POST.
Hard Disk Drive Boot Error A hard disk drive boot error (error codes 1996 and I999030X) can be caused by the following: Command Action /ID:nnnn Adds the text string "nnnn" to the top of the test log for identification purposes.
