Power Light Does Not Light Check the following: • Did you press the power-on button? • Is the system operating normally? If so, the power LED might be defective or the cable from the control panel to the workstation board might be loose. • Have you securely plugged the workstation AC power cord into the power supply? • Some power supplies have a power switch on the back of the power supply, next to the fan. If your system has one, is it turned on? • Remove all add-in cards and see if the system boots. If successful, add the cards back in one at a time with a reboot between each addition to determine which card might be causing the problem. • Make sure the memory FBDIMMs comply with the system requirements. • Make sure the memory FBDIMMs have been populated according to the system requirements. • Remove the memory FBDIMMs and re-seat them. • Make sure the processor(s) comply with the system requirements. • Make sure the processor(s) have been populated according to the system requirements. • Remove the processor(s) and re-seat them. • Make sure the chassis standoffs are installed only below mounting holes. Misplaced standoffs can contact the pins on the bottom of the workstation board and cause a short. • In a DC powered system, make sure all DC cables are connected. 46 Intel® Workstation Board S5000XVN
