Applicable to: World-Wide
System Board Replacement
1. The BIOS and Vital Product Data (VPD) for the computer you are servicing must be installed on the new system board (FRU) after it is installed in the computer. To do this, you must run the Flash Update program using the Flash Update diskette shipped with the new system board FRU. See 'BIOS Levels— , 'Vital Product Data—, and 'Flash (BIOS/VPD) Update Procedure—.
2. Always ensure the latest level of BIOS is installed on the computer. A down level BIOS may cause false errors and unnecessary replacement of the system board.
3. The processor is a separate FRU from the system board and is not included with the system board FRU. If you are instructed to replace the system board, do the following.
4. Install the processor from the old system board on the new system board.
5. If any of the following options are on the old system board, install them on the
new system board.
- External cache memory and cache tag RAM
- Memory modules
- Extended video memory
6. Ensure that the new system board jumper settings match the old system board jumper settings.
7. If the new system board does not correct the problem, reinstall the options on the old system board, reinstall the old system board, then replace the processor.
