The hard disk drive contains pre-loaded software. Be sure to reload the software on the primary hard disk drive (Drive C) when replacing it. IMPORTANT: The drives in the system you are servicing may have been rearranged, or the drive startup sequence has changed. Be extremely careful during write operations, such as copying, saving, or formatting. Data or programs can be overwritten if you select an incorrect drive. Ask the customer to back up any additional software from the hard disk drive before you reload the software. How to Diagnose Combined FRUs: If an adapter or device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs might cause an error code. Before replacing the device or adapter, remove the FRUs one by one to see if the symptoms change. If a newly replaced FRU does not correct the problem: If you have reached this point of the check procedures and were instructed to replace a FRU but doing so did not correct the problem, reinstall the original FRU and go through "Start" again.
