POST Message 178X 1800 Description A failure occurred during testing of the hard disk drive or a primary or secondary IDE device. Action: 1. Run the diagnostic programs. (See "Diagnostic programs" on page 136 for information about diagnostic programs provided with your computer.) 2. If the diagnostic programs detect a failure, replace the defective hard disk drive or primary or secondary IDE or EIDE device. If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the computer serviced. A PCI adapter has requested a hardware interrupt that is not available. Action: 1. Make sure that settings for all ISA legacy adapters are correct in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If the hardware interrupt settings are not correct, change and save the settings. Setting the resources used by ISA legacy adapters to ISA Resource enables the Plug and Play function to configure around the legacy adapters. For background information on PCI, ISA, Plug and Play, and legacy (non-Plug and Play) adapters, refer to Installing Options in Your Personal Computer. For information about required interrupt resource settings for ISA legacy adapters, refer to the documentation that comes with these adapters. For instructions on using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see Chapter 5, "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 61. 2. Make sure that switches on all ISA legacy adapters are set correctly. For information about switch settings, refer to the documentation that comes with the ISA legacy adapters. 3. If all hardware interrupts are being used by ISA legacy adapters, you might need to remove an ISA legacy adapter to make an interrupt available to the PCI adapter you want to install. For instructions on removing adapters, see Installing Options in Your Personal Computer. Note: If you remove an ISA legacy adapter, set the hardware interrupt used by the removed adapter to Available before installing another adapter. 4. If you have other PCI or Plug and Play adapters installed, you might need to remove one of these adapters to make an interrupt available to the PCI adapter you want to install. If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the computer serviced. 114 Using Your Personal Computer
