IBM PS/2 - 9576/77 Error Code 01290xxx

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
Error code 01290xxx can be solid or intermittent. The error indication usually occurs after a processor upgrade. Maps call out system board or processor board.

Problem Isolation Aids:
None.

Fix:
Reseat the processor chip, in some cases the processor was not fully seated in manufacturing or during a processor upgrade. The following procedure should be used :-
Remove the planar board from the system and place it on a smooth, flat area. The planar board should be supported under the socket area. Push the processor down on the system board until fully seated. The heel of your hand may be used to accomplish this. When the processor is fully seated, the pins are barely visible when viewed from the side.
