POST Messages POST message 601 602 604 Description A failure occurred during testing of the diskette drive and diskette-drive controller. This error can be caused by a loose or incorrectly connected cable, a failing drive, or a failing system board. Note: You can use the server, but one or more diskette drives might not work. Action: Verify that all diskette drive cables are properly installed and securely connected. Running the diagnostic tests might isolate the server component that failed, but you must have your system serviced. (See "Running the diagnostic test programs" on page 164 for information on running the diagnostic programs that come with your server.) The server cannot start the diskette in the drive. The diskette might be damaged or formatted incorrectly. Action: Try another startable diskette that is formatted correctly and is in good condition. (For information and instructions on formatting diskettes, refer to your operating-system documentation.) If this does not correct the problem, have the system serviced. A failure occurred during a diskette-drive test. Action: 1. Verify that the Configuration/Setup Utility program correctly reflects the type of diskette drive that you have installed. For information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 39. 2. Run the diagnostic programs. (See "Running the diagnostic test programs" on page 164 for information on running the diagnostic programs that come with your server.) 3. If the diagnostic programs detect a failure, replace the diskette drive. If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the system serviced. 176 Netfinity 3000 User's Handbook
