drive does not work, do the following:
1. Review the basic IDE installation guidelines to ensure a proper configuration.
2. In addition, check the following:
o
Verify correct drivers are installed.
o
Verify there is a CD-ROM disk in the CD-ROM drive.
o
Verify all internal drive cables are securely attached and functional.
3. If the drive is a Hewlett-Packard CD-ROM drive, review the CD-ROM Installation Guide for any
special installation instructions.
4. Try installing a known good CD-ROM disk.
5. If the problem persists, check for environmental problems that could damage disk media and disk drive
heads.
Environmental problems result from:
o
Radiated Interference: Sources include communications and radar installations, radio/TV broadcast
transmitters, and hand-held receivers.
o
Airborne Contaminants: Sources include dust, smoke, and ashes. Steam from duplication equipment
may result in intermittent disk errors.

Use the Setup Utility to ensure the CD-ROM drive is bootable:
1. Review the Troubleshooting Checklist and Boot Device Priority
2. Reboot the Server and run the (BIOS) Setup Utility (pressing F2).
3. Scroll to the Boot menu.
4. If necessary, move the CD-ROM up the boot list.
This ensures the CD-ROM will boot before any of the hard disk drives (IDE or SCSI).
5. Save and exit the Setup Utility.
