Displaying the Error Log Diagnostic errors are printed on the printer that is attached to the parallel port when the error is detected. The error is also logged in the system memory.

To exit the screen, select the Cancel icon or press Esc. The error log is not saved when the system is powered off. Checking the Installed Devices List If a device is installed but the icon appears in a gray shade rather than a dark shade on the basic diagnostics screen, the device is defective. Reseat the device connectors. If the symptom remains, replace the device or the system board. If needed, adjust the contrast control to clearly distinguish the shades of the icon. If a device that is not installed appears in a dark shade (for example, FDD-2 appears in a dark shade when no second FDD is installed), do the following: 1. Replace the first device in the configuration, such as an FDD-1. 2. If the problem remains, replace the system board. The Parallel, and Serial icons are always displayed in a dark shade, because the icons represent subsystems of the system board and not the attachment of the devices. The FDD-1 icon represents the first drive in the system configuration for each type of device. For Model 765D, FDD-1 represents an external diskette drive attached 450 IBM Mobile Systems HMM
