Diskette Drive Activity Light Does Not Light
Check the following:
q Are the diskette drive power and signal cables properly installed?
q Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the diskette drive set correctly?
q Is the diskette drive properly configured?
q Is the diskette drive activity light always on? If so, the signal cable may be plugged in
incorrectly.
If you are using the onboard diskette controller, use the SSU to make sure that “Onboard Floppy” is
set to “Enabled.” If you are using an add-in diskette controller, make sure that “Onboard Floppy”
is set to “Disabled.” To run the SSU, see Chapter 3.
If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the diskette drive, server board, or drive signal
cable. Contact your service representative or authorized dealer for help.
