IBM PC730/PC750 - 0014 error while running CD audio test

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
IBM PC 700 Series 6877 and 6887 may display a 0014 error while running the CD Audio test and/or show the incorrect IRQ assigned to the parallel port (LPT1) using QAPlus/2 for OS/2.

Problem Isolation Aids:
The 0014 error displayed during the testing of the CD-ROM audio function should be considered a false indication of a hardware problem. Verify that ALL applications that utilize the audio capability of the CD-ROM are failing before pursuing parts replacement. An audio failure may also be caused by improperly configured system resources.

The parallel port test under QAPlus/2 will pass, however when the "Information" icon is accessed, the IRQ assigned to the parallel port shows IRQ 5 instead of IRQ 7. Check the Configuration/Setup Utility for the actual IRQ assigned to the parallel port.

Fix:
Prior to any hardware replacements as a result of running QAPlus/2, QAPlus/Pro should be performed. QAPlus/Pro operates as a more in-depth standalone diagnostic routine without the resource limitations of running under Windows or OS/2 operating systems.

This problem will be resolved in the next update of QAPlus/2 and will be available from this Database

Note:
QAPlus/2 is a trademark of DiagSoft, Inc.
