Advanced Troubleshooting
37
A possible expansion card failure has 
occurred.
1
Determine if a conflict exists by 
removing a card (not a graphics card) 
and restarting the computer (see 
page 58).
2
If the problem persists, reinstall the 
card that you removed, remove a 
different card, and then restart the 
computer.
3
Repeat this process for each card. If 
the computer starts normally, 
troubleshoot the last card removed 
from the computer for resource 
conflicts (see "Resolving Software and 
Hardware Incompatibilities" on 
page 46).
4
If the problem persists, contact Dell 
(see page 94).
Another failure has occurred.
• Ensure that the cables are properly 
connected to the system board from 
the hard drive, CD drive, and DVD 
drive (see page 54).
• If there is an error message on your 
screen identifying a problem with a 
device (such as the floppy drive or 
hard drive), check the device to make 
sure it is functioning properly.
• The operating system is attempting to 
boot from a device (such as the floppy 
drive or hard drive); check system 
setup (see page 82) to make sure that 
the boot sequence is correct for the 
devices installed on your computer.
• If the problem persists, contact Dell
