PCServer704 - POST errors, 0176, 0177, 0178, 0179

Applicable to: World-Wide

SYMPTOM:
After installing a new processor, upgrading a processor, replacing an existing processor, or replacing a system board, any of the following POST errors are displayed:

0176
0177
0178
0179

PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
Any of the following cards were added, or replaced:

- FRU p/n75H8018 or FRU p/n12J3338 System Board
- FRU p/n75H9109 (Option p/n94G5881) 166MHz Pentium Pro
- FRU p/n76H4889 (Option p/n94G6678) 200MHz Pentium Pro

FIX:
Permanent Fix:
Install the plug-in module (PUTR) on the connector J8G1 on the system board. The PUTR and installation instructions ship with all FRU and Option processor cards and with all FRU system boards. The PUTR should always be installed when replacing the system board or processor card(s).

Work-around:
If for some reason the PUTR cannot be installed, power off the Server for a full 30 seconds and reboot. If the Server completes POST without errors and all processors are identified, the system will function normally.

In the unlikely event that a PUTR did not ship with the system board or the processor card, the PUTR can be ordered separately as FRU p/n12J4649.
