Description
062
The computer failed to boot on three consecutive attempts.
All caches are disabled. Repeatedly turning the computer on and then off or resetting the computer
might cause this problem.
Action: Take the following steps to correct the problem:
1.
Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and verify that all settings are correct. Use
the Cache Control selection in the Advanced Setup menu of the Configuration/Setup
Utility program to enable the caches.
2.
Install a new battery. See “Replacing the battery” on page 94 for instructions.
If the problem remains, call for service. When the problem is corrected, be sure to enable the
caches.
101, 102, and 106
An error occurred during the system board and microprocessor test.
Action: Call for service.
114
An adapter read-only memory (ROM) error occurred.
Action: Remove the options. If you can start the computer without the options installed, reinstall
each option one at a time and retest after each is reinstalled. When an option fails, replace
it.
If you cannot isolate and correct the problem, call for service.
129
An error was detected in the L1 cache of one of the microprocessors.
Action: Take the following steps to correct the problem:
1.
If you just installed a microprocessor, verify that the microprocessor is installed and
seated correctly.
2.
If the problem remains, call for service.
151
A real-time clock (RTC) error occurred.
Action: Call for service.
161
The real-time clock battery has failed.
Action: Replace the battery yourself or call for service.
You can use the computer until you replace the battery. However, you must run the
Configuration/Setup Utility program and set the time and date and other custom settings each time
you turn on the computer.
162
A change in device configuration occurred. This error occurs under one or more of the following
conditions:
•
A new device has been installed.
•
A device has been moved to a different location or cable connection.
•
A device has been removed or disconnected from a cable.
•
A device is failing and is no longer recognized by the computer as being installed.
•
An external device is not turned on.
•
An invalid checksum is detected in the battery-backed memory.
Action: Verify that all external devices are turned on. You must turn on external devices before
turning on the computer.
If you did not add, remove, or change the location of a device, a device is probably failing. Running
the Diagnostic program might isolate the failing device. See “Creating an IBM Enhanced
Diagnostics diskette” on page 90 and “Using the Enhanced Diagnostics diskette” on page 91.
If the problem remains, call for service.
