The ThinkPad 760 and 765 series are high-end desktop replacements known for their unique tilting keyboards and powerful processors.

Use the following procedure as a guide for computer problems.

The diagnostic tests are intended to test only IBM products. Non-IBM products, prototype cards, or modified options can give false errors and invalid system responses.

1. Obtain the failing symptoms in as much detail as possible.- Verify the symptoms by attempting to re-create the failure by  running the diagnostic test or by repeating the same operation.

   To run the diagnostics, refer to 'How to Run the Diagnostics'.

   • Use the following table with the verified symptom to determine  which page to go to. Search the symptoms column  and find the description  that best matches your symptom; then go to the page shown in the  'Go to' column.

Symptoms (Verified)	Go to
Power failure. (The power indicator does not go on or stay on.)	'Power Systems Checkout'.
POST does not complete. No beeps or error code are indicated.	'Symptom-to-FRU Index', and then use the 'No Beep Symptoms' table.
The configuration is not the same as the installed devices.	'Checking the Installed Devices List'.
POST beeps, but no error codes are displayed.	'Symptom-to-FRU Index', and then use the 'Beep Symptoms' table.
POST detected an error and displayed numeric error codes.	'Symptom-to-FRU Index', and then use the 'Numeric Error Codes' table.
The diagnostic test detected an error and displayed an FRU code.	'FRU Codes'.
Other symptoms (such as LCD display problems).	'Symptom-to-FRU Index', and then use the 'Other Symptom' table.
Symptoms cannot be re-created. (Intermittent problems.)	Use the customer reported symptoms and go to 'Symptom-to-FRU Index'.

Use either the TrackPoint III or the cursor move keys to interact with the tests. The Enter key works the same as selecting the OK icon to reply OK.

1. Press and hold the F1 key,  then power-on the computer.  Hold the F1 key down until the Easy-Setup screen appears.- Select Test and press Enter.- Select a device and press Enter to run the test.- The test progress screen appears.- OK appears when the test ends without any errors.- Start the Advanced Diagnostic test by pressing Ctrl+A on the basic diagnostic menu screen.- Select Tool to install the tools.

          **NOTE:**
            The following tools are required.
          - FDD: Erasable 2HD diskette- Parallel: Wrap plug (P/N 72X8546)- Serial: Wrap plug (P/N 72X8546)- PCMCIA: PC Test Card (P/N 35G4703)- CDROM: Any CD (data CD is recommended)
   
          - Select a device, press the **Spacebar**, and
             install the tool. Multiple devices can be selected by repeating
             this step.
   
             A **OK** mark appears beside the selected devices.
   
            - Select **OK** and press **Enter**
               if the selection is OK.- Select a device and press **Enter** to start the tests.
   
                **NOTE:**
                  Don't touch the keyboard and
                 pointing device when the system board test
                 in running. This may cause an error.
   
                - Select **Test All** to test all devices.- Select **Loop Test** to run the tests in a repeated loop.
   
                     A loop option menu appears where you can select
                     a device loop or all-device loop.
                     Select a device by pressing the **Spacebar**.
                     Repeat this step to select multiple devices.
                     Press **Enter** to start the diagnostic loop.
                     If no device is selected,
                     all device tests are looped.
   
                    - To exit the loop,
                       keep pressing **Ctrl+Pause** until the test exits.
                       A beep sounds to notify
                       that the exit interrupt is sensed
                       by the test program.
   

  Symptom-to-FRU Index

The Symptom-to-FRU Index lists the symptoms and errors and the possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first.

NOTE: Perform the FRU replacement or actions in the sequence shown in the 'FRU/Action in Sequence' column. If a FRU did not solve the problem, put the original part back in the computer. Donot replace a nondefective FRU.****

This index can also be used to help you decide which FRUs to have available when servicing a computer.

Numeric error codes show the errors detected in POST or system operation. In the following error codes, X can be any number.

• If no codes are available, use narrative symptoms.
• If the symptom is not listed, go to 'Undetermined Problems' .

NOTE: For IBM devices not supported by diagnostic codes in the ThinkPad notebook computers, see the manual for that device.

Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement should only be considered when a recurring problem exists.

When analyzing the intermittent problem, do the following:

1. Run the advanced diagnostic test for the system board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRUs.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU shown by the FRU code . Rerun the test to verify that there are no more errors.

  FRU Removals and Replacements

This section contains information about removals and replacements.

• Do not damage any parts. Only certified and trained personnel  should service the computer.
• The arrows in this section show  the direction of movement to remove a FRU, or to turn a screw to release  the FRU. The arrows are marked in numeric order, in square callouts, to  show the correct sequence of removal.
• Any FRUs that must be removed before removing the failing FRU  are listed at the top of the page.
• To replace a FRU, reverse the removal procedure and follow any  notes that pertain to replacement. See 'Locations' for internal  cable connections and arrangement information.
• When replacing a FRU, use the correct screw size, as shown in the  procedure.

  Before the computer is powered-on after FRU replacement, make sure all screws, springs, or other small parts, are in place and are not left loose inside the computer. Verify this by shaking the computer and listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical short circuits.

 
The battery pack contains small amounts of nickel. Do not disassemble it, throw it into fire or water, or short-circuit it. Dispose of the battery pack as required by local ordinances or regulations.

Before removing any FRU*, power-off the computer, unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, remove the battery pack, and then disconnect any interconnecting cables.

  LCD Removal and Replacement

This section discusses removal and replacement procedure for the LCD unit of the ThinkPad 760 series. After removing the LCD unit, check its part number, then go to the appropriate section:

  How to Disable the Power-On Password:

1. Power-off the computer.
2. Open the keyboard, and remove the  diskette drive or CD-ROM drive and the battery pack.
3. Install a jumper on the power-on password connector on the  left side of the FDD connector. (See 'Password Connector' for location.)
4. Reinstall the battery pack and the diskette drive/CD-ROM drive.
5. Power-on the computer and wait until the POST ends.
6. Verify that the password prompt does not appear.
7. After the service check is completed, remove the jumper.

To reactivate the password, set the password again.

The power shutdown switch resets the system regardless of the microcode status and forces the power off. Use this push button to power-off when power is not completely off or the microcode is in a hung state.

See 'Rear View' for the power shutdown switch.

You are here because the computer fails only when the AC Adapter is used.

• If the power problem occurs only when the port replicator is used,  replace the replicator.
• If the power-on indicator does not turn on, check the power  cord of the AC Adapter for correct continuity and installation.
• If the operational charge does not work, go to 'Checking Operational Charging' .

NOTE: For Model 760CD, 760ED, 760LD, and 760ELD, there are two types of adapters. The procedure for checking both types is the same.

1. Unplug the AC Adapter cable from the computer and  measure the output voltage at the plug of the AC Adapter cable.

 
(20 - 10 V)

Pin	Voltage (Vdc)
1	+18.0 to +21.0
2	Ground

(16 - 10 V)

Pin	Voltage (Vdc)
1	+14.5 to +17.0
2	Ground

• If the voltage is correct, make sure the  connection between DC/DC card and system board is not loose.
• Replace the DC/DC card.
• If the problem is not corrected, replace the system board.
• If the problem is still not corrected, go to 'Undetermined Problems' .
• If the voltage is not correct, go to the next step.
• Unplug the AC Adapter cable from the ac power outlet and wait  five minutes or longer to allow the over-voltage protection circuit  to be fully discharged and initialized.
• Plug the AC Adapter cable into the ac power outlet.
• Measure the output voltage of the AC Adapter.
• If the voltage is still not correct, replace the AC Adapter.

NOTE: An audible noise from the AC Adapter does not always indicate a defective adapter.

To check operational charging, use a discharged battery pack or a battery pack that has less than 50% of the total power remaining when installed in the computer.

Perform operational charging. If the battery status indicator does not turn on, remove the battery pack and leave it to return to room temperature. Reinstall the battery pack. If the charge indicator still does not turn on, replace the battery pack.

Battery charging will not start until the Fuel-Gauge shows that less than 95% of the total power remains; with this condition the battery pack will charge to 100% of its capacity. This protects the battery pack from being overcharged or having a shortened life.

Do the following:

1. Power-off the computer.- Remove the battery pack and measure the voltage between battery  terminals 1 (+) and 4 (-).

    

   Terminal	Voltage (Vdc) / Signal
   1	+0 to +13.5
   2	Send
   3	Thermal
   4	Ground (-)
   5	Select

   NOTE: Signal lines, not used in these steps,  are used for communication between the system and the battery.

   If the voltage is less than +11.0 Vdc, the battery pack has  been discharged. Recharge the battery pack.

   • If the voltage is still less than +11.0 Vdc after recharging,  replace the battery.

   NOTE:   If the voltage of the battery pack is 0 V, it is not defective.

   • If the voltage is more than +11.0 Vdc,  measure the resistance between  battery terminals 3 and 4.  The resistance must be 4 to 30 K ohm.

If the resistance is not correct, replace the battery pack.

If the resistance is correct, replace the DC/DC card.

1. Unplug the Car-Battery Adapter cable from the computer.- Plug the Car-Battery Adapter into the cigarette lighter socket.

   NOTE: If the adapter is already plugged in, reseat it.

   • Measure the output voltage of the Car-Battery Adapter cable.

    

   Pin	Voltage (Vdc)
   1	+19.0 to +21.0
   2	Ground

   • If the voltage is correct, the Car-Battery Adapter is working correctly.  Check that the computer runs with the AC Adapter.

     If it runs correctly with the AC Adapter, check the system board.

     If the problem still remains,  replace the following FRUs one at a time.

     1. DC/DC card
     2. System board

     • If the problem is not resolved when the system board is replaced,  go to 'Undetermined Problems'.- If the voltage is outside the normal voltage range, do one of the  following:

       • Try these test procedures in a different car,  if one is available.
       • Replace the Car-Battery Adapter if the computer works  correctly with the AC Adapter.

NOTE: If the output voltage from the cigarette lighter socket of the car is less than 10.5 Vdc, a continuous noise may be heard. The condition of the car battery should be checked by appropriate service personal.

1. Power-off the computer and unplug the AC Adapter  from the computer.
2. Open the keyboard, and remove the  diskette drive/CD-ROM drive, the battery pack, and the hard disk drive.
3. Remove the top cover and keyboard unit.
4. Open the keyboard unit, then remove the keyboard card.
5. Remove the backup battery from the keyboard card.  (Refer to 'Backup Battery, Speaker, Standby Battery' to remove the battery.)
6. Measure the voltage of the backup battery.  See the following figure:

 

Wire	Voltage (Vdc)
Red	+2.5 to +3.7
Black	Ground

• If the voltage is correct, replace the system board.
• If the voltage is not correct, the backup battery has been  discharged. Replace the backup battery.
• If the backup battery discharges quickly after replacement,  replace the system board.

1. Power-off the computer and unplug the AC Adapter  from the computer.- Open the keyboard, remove the  diskette drive/CD-ROM drive, the battery pack, and hard disk drive.- Remove the top cover and keyboard unit.- Open the keyboard unit and remove the keyboard card.- Remove the standby battery from the keyboard card.  (Refer to 'Backup Battery, Speaker, Standby Battery' to remove the battery.)

      ![warn](/static/parts/img/475600df128f.gif)  Be careful ****not to cause a short circuit when measuring
       the voltage.****
   
      - Measure the voltage of the standby battery.
   
        - If the voltage between red and black
           is 3.5 Vdc or greater, the voltage is
           correct.
           Go to step **12** to verify standby battery operation.- If the voltage is less than 3.5 Vdc, go to the next step.
   
        - Plug the AC Adapter
           into the computer and power-on the computer.- Measure the output voltage at the connector on the system board.
   
            ![p760bi](/static/parts/img/89286c8e5ac9.gif)
   
            | Pin | Voltage (Vdc) |
            | --- | --- |
            | + | +4.0 |
            | - | Ground |
   
            - If the voltage is less than +4.0 Vdc,
               replace the DC/DC card. If the voltage is still low, replace the system
               board.- If the voltage is more than +4.0 Vdc, power-off the computer,
                 replace the standby battery, and go to the next step.
   
            - Ensure that the AC Adapter is plugged into
               the computer, then power-on the computer.- Charging of the standby battery starts.
                 A depleted battery needs approximately 30
                 minutes to be recharged to the operational voltage of +3.5 Vdc.- Unplug the AC Adapter.- Verify the standby battery function by removing and installing
                     the battery pack during suspend mode.
   
                    **NOTE:**
                      Removing and installing the battery pack during suspend mode
                    **should be done within one minute.**
                     The resume operation must start.
                     If the
                     resume operation does not work, switching of power from the battery
                     pack to standby battery
                     will not be correct. Replace the DC/DC card.
   
                     If replacing the DC/DC card does not resolve the problem, replace
                     the system board.
   

Three power management modes are provided by the computer to reduce power consumption and prolong battery power.

Standby Mode

When in standby mode the following occurs:

• The LCD backlight turns off.
• The hard disk motor stops.

Events that cause the computer to enter standby mode:

• Standby requested by the Fn key  ( Fn+F3 ).
• No activity under auto-standby enabled by the  ThinkPad Features program.

Events that cause the computer to exit or resume standby mode:

• (Resume) Any key operation.

Suspend Mode

When in suspend mode, the following, in addition to the four actions of standby mode, occur:

• The LCD is powered off.
• The hard disk is powered off.
• The CPU is stopped.

NOTE:

1. In the ThinkPad Features program, the computer can be set to  'Will not suspend even if LCD is closed'.- In the ThinkPad Features program, the  computer can be set to  'suspend hibernate while docked.'- When the computer is powered with ac power and is used  with one of the communication PC cards, the computer enters standby mode, the PC card and application program  remain active.- In the following conditions, the computer cannot enter suspend  mode:

    - While a communication link is running.- While the computer is attached to a Dock I.
   

Events that cause the computer to enter suspend mode:

• Suspend mode is requested by the Fn key  ( Fn+F4 ).
• The LCD is closed.
• The keyboard is opened.
• The specified time has elapsed from the last operation with  the keyboard, mouse, hard disk drive, parallel connector, or  diskette drive, or the AC Adapter is plugged in.  The time is specified by Suspend Timer in the ThinkPad Features program.
• The battery condition is low. The battery power indicator  blinks orange.
• In the ThinkPad features program, the  computer can be set to Hibernate when  battery becomes low. The default setting is suspend.
• Either the PS2 OFF or PS2 SUSpend command is set in  the ThinkPad Features program.

Events that cause the computer to exit or resume suspend mode:

• (Resume) The LCD is opened.
• (Resume) The keyboard is closed.
• (Resume) The real time clock alarm is signaled.
• (Resume) The ring indicator  (RI) is signaled by a serial or PCMCIA device.
• (Resume) The Fn key is pressed.
• (Resume) An external keyboard key is pressed while  operating with ac power.
• (Exit) Timer conditions are satisfied  for entering hibernation mode.

Hibernation Mode

When in hibernation mode, the following occurs:

• The system status, RAM, VRAM, and setup  data are stored on the hard disk.
• The system is powered off.

NOTE:

1. In the ThinkPad Features program, the  computer can be set to suspend hibernate while docked.- The computer cannot enter hibernation mode when:

   • It is powered with ac power and a  communication PC card is used.
   • The computer is attached to a Dock I.

Any of the following events can cause the computer to enter hibernation mode:

• Hibernation mode is requested by the Fn key ( Fn+F12 ).
• Timer conditions are satisfied in suspend mode.
• A critical low battery condition occurs.
• The PS2 HIBernation command is set in the  ThinkPad Features program.

The following event causes the computer to exit hibernation mode:

• The power-on switch is turned on.

When power is turned on, the hibernation history in the boot record on the hard disk is recognized and system status is restored from the hard disk to resume operation.

If power shutdowns occur intermittently when using PCMCIA-2 devices via a port replicator, suspect a current overload. Some PCMCIA devices use much power, if the maximum usage of each device occurs simultaneously, the total current will exceed the limit, thereby causing a power shutdown. Isolate this problem by removing one of the devices, and use the computer under the same condition to see whether a power shutdown occurs.

Do this procedure for all devices, then determine the cause.

Symptom / Error	FRU / Action in Sequence
Power shuts down during operation.	1. Go to 'Power Systems Checkout'. 2. Battery pack 3. Remove the battery pack and let it cool for 2 hours. 4. DC/DC card 5. Power sources

If the TrackPoint III will not work, check the configuration in the ThinkPad Features program. If the configuration of the TrackPoint III is disabled, select Enable to enable it.

If this does not correct the TrackPoint III problem, continue with the following.

The TrackPoint III does automatic compensations to adjust the pointer sensor. During this process, the pointer moves on the screen automatically for a short time. This self-acting pointer movement can occur when a slight, steady pressure is applied to the TrackPoint III pointer while the computer is powered on or while the system is running, or when readjustment is required because the temperature has exceeded its normal temperature range. This symptom does not indicate a hardware problem. No service actions are necessary if the pointer movement stops in a short period of time.

If a click button problem or pointing stick problem occurs, do the following:

1. Go to the Easy-Setup menu.
2. Select an item with the pointing stick.
3. Press either the left or right click button.
4. Verify that both buttons work correctly.

If either the pointing stick or the click button does not work, do the following actions one at a time to correct the problem. Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

• Reseat the keyboard card cables.
• Replace the keyboard card cables.
• Replace the keyboard card assembly.
• Replace the video card.
• Replace the system board.

Do the following to isolate the problem to a controller, drive, or diskette. A scratch, write enabled, nondefective 2HD diskette is required.

FDD-1 represents the the diskette drive in the UltraBay.

FDD-2 represents the port replicator, expansion unit, or diskette drive attached through the external diskette drive connector.

  Make sure that the diskette does not have more than one label attached to it. Multiple labels can cause damage to the drive, or can cause the drive to fail.

Do the following to select the test device:

1. Select the advanced diagnostics mode and  select Tool, then  select FDD-1 or FDD-2 and  press the Spacebar.  A OK mark appears next to the selected icon.  Insert the blank diskette when instructed.- Run the diskette drive test.- If the controller test detects an error, FRU code 10 appears.  Replace the system board.- If the controller test runs without errors,  the drive read/write tests start automatically.- If the drive test detects an error, FRU code 50 for FDD-1  or 51 for FDD-2 appears.  If the diskette itself is known to be good, replace the drive.- If FDD-2 test detects an error, move the drive to the computer's  diskette drive connector directly, if possible, and test it  again as FDD-1.

         If no errors occur in the FDD-1 position, the drive is not defective.
         Go to 'Port Replicator Checkout' in 'Common Devices
         Checkout' section to isolate the replicator problem.
   
        - If the drive is attached through an Expansion Unit, go to the
           service manual of the Expansion Unit to isolate the problem.- If the drive is attached through a Diskette Drive Attachment Unit,
             replace the unit.
   

If an error occurs when the external diskette drive is attached through the external diskette drive connector and there is not a diskette drive in the UltraBay, reseat the connector on the video card. If the error still remains, reseat the external diskette drive connector. If the error still remains, replace the following FRUs one at a time:

1. Select the icon FDD on the TEST MENU . By  doing this, the controller test and the drive  read/write test run.  If the controller test detects an error, FRU code 10 appears.  In this case, replace the system board.
2. If the controller test run without errors,  follow the instructions on the screen and insert a scratch  diskette.
3. If the drive test detects an error, FRU code 50 appears.  If the diskette media are known to be good, replace the drive or the  drive cable.

If the display problem occurs only when using an external display, use the following instructions to correct the problem.

Note: Before you replace a display, check the following list to see if it is connected correctly.

• 8506 and 8508 displays must be connected to an Image Adapter/A or an  Image-I Adapter/A.
• 63XX and 85XX systems support either 63XX or 85XX displays.
• 85XX systems with an XGA-2 adapter support 95XX displays.
• 95XX systems support either 63XX, 85XX, or 95XX displays.
• ThinkPad models support either 85XX or 95XX displays.

If the screen is rolling, replace the display assembly. If that does not correct the problem, replace FRUs in the following order until the problem goes away:

1. Video card
2. Display adapter (any type)
3. System board
4. Bus adapter (if used)

If the screen is not rolling, run the display self-test as follows:

1. Power-off the computer and display.
2. Disconnect the display signal cable.
3. Power-on the display.
4. Set the contrast to its maximum position.
5. Set the brightness control to the center detent position.

Check for the following conditions:

• You should be able to vary the screen intensity by adjusting the contrast  and brightness controls.
• The screen should be white or light gray,  with a black margin (test margin) on the screen. NOTE: The location of the test margin varies with the type of display. The  test margin might be on the top, bottom, or one or both sides.

If you do not see a test margin on the screen, replace the display. If there is a test margin on the screen, replace the system board.

On ThinkPad Models 700, 700C, 720C, 720C, do the following:

1. Video card
2. System board

The following auxiliary input devices may be available for IBM ThinkPad models.

• Numeric keypad
• Mouse (PS/2 compatible)

• If you suspect a problem with any of the auxiliary input devices  (listed above), replace the device.

If the problem is not corrected, replace the following FRUs one  at a time to correct the problem.

• Keyboard control card
• System board

• If the computer receives an incorrect keyboard response,  remove other external devices, check the keyboard connections, and recheck  the keyboard responses. If the problem remains, replace the following FRUs  one at a time to correct the problem.

  • Keyboard
  • Keyboard control card
  • System board

  • If a 00030100 error message appears,  power-off the computer and the external devices.  Then power-on the computer before you power-on the external devices.

1. Make sure the printer is correctly connected and is powered-on.
2. Run the printer self-test.

If the printer self-test does not run correctly, the problem is in the printer. Refer to the printer service manual.

If the printer self-test runs correctly, do the following.

1. Verify the port settings in configuration.
2. Install a wrap plug on the port (indicated in configuration)  and run the advanced diagnostic tests.
3. If the advanced diagnostic tests (with the wrap plug installed)  do not detect a failure, replace the printer cable. If the problem is not corrected, replace the system board.

Use the following procedure to isolate a port replicator problem. A port replicator attaches to the system expansion connector at the rear of the computer.

1. Power-off the computer.- Remove the failing devices from the replicator.- Unplug the AC adapter from the replicator, if attached.- Remove the port replicator from the computer.- Reconnect the failing device directly to the computer.  (If another device occupies the connector, remove it first.)- Go to General Checkout and follow that procedure.- If the advanced diagnostic device test does not find an error,  suspect a problem with the port replicator  or the system expansion bus.- Power-off the computer and reconnect the port replicator.- Power-on the computer and run the following advanced diagnostic tests:

              - Serial port test with the wrap plug installed on the replicator.- Parallel port test with the wrap plug installed on the replicator.- PCMCIA-2 test with the PC test card installed.- FDD-2 (FDD-1 if no drive is installed in the computer)
                       drive test on the failing device.
   
              - If diagnostic errors appear, replace the replicator or diskette
                 drive attachment unit.
   
                 If the problem remains after the replacement, replace the
                 system board.
   
                - If power problems appear only when using the replicator, replace the
                   replicator.
   

If power shut downs occur intermittently when using PCMCIA-2 devices via a port replicator, suspect an over-current problem. Some PCMCIA devices use more power; if the maximum usage of each device occurs simultaneously, the total current will exceed the limit, thereby causing a power shut down. Isolate this problem by removing one of the devices, and use the computer under the same condition, and see whether a power shut down occurs. Do this procedure for all devices then determine the cause.

Customer purchase of the larger AC adapter (50W, optional) is recommended, if it is not yet in use.

• If the TrackPoint II  does not work, check the configuration.  If the configuration of the TrackPoint II is set to Disabled or Off, change it to Enable or On.

If the problem remains, continue.

NOTE: TrackPoint II automatically compensates to adjust  the pointer sensor. This causes the pointer to move slightly on  the screen and then stop. Pointer  movement might occur when  a slight, steady pressure is applied to the TrackPoint II pointer when  the computer is powered-on or running, or  when exceeded temperature range requires re-adjustment.

• If the cursor floats or moves erratically, power-off and disconnect the  mouse. Power-on the computer. If the  problem goes away, replace the mouse. If the problem remains, replace the  keyboard.- For click button or pointing stick problems:

  1. Go to the Easy-Setup screen.
  2. Select an item with the pointing stick.
  3. Press either left or right click button.
  4. Verify that both buttons work correctly.

Memory errors might stop system operations, show error messages on the screen, or hang the system.

Use the following procedure to isolate memory problems:

NOTE: Make sure that the DIMM adapter card is fully installed into the connector. A loose connection can cause an error.

1. Power-off the computer and  remove the  DIMM adapter card  from its slot (if installed).
2. Press and hold the F1 key; then power-on the computer.  Hold the F1 key down until the Easy-Setup screen appears.
3. Select Test and press Enter .
4. Select Memory and press Enter to  run the memory test on base memory. If an error appears, replace the  system board.
5. Power-off the computer and reinstall the  DIMM adapter card; then power-on the computer.  Verify the memory size; then test the memory.  If an error appears, replace  the DIMM adapter card.

If memory problems occur intermittently, use the loop option to repeat the test. When the test detects an error, an error log is printed on the printer connected to the parallel port. See 'Error Log' for more information.

The processing functions are performed by both the system board and the CPU card. Processor problems can be caused by either FRU. However, the CPU card generally has a lower probability of failure. When a numeric code calls the system board or the CPU card as a FRU, or the CPU card is called by a diagnostic test by showing FRU code 11, use the following procedure to isolate the problem:

1. Run the system board test to verify the symptom. This test verifies  both the system board and the CPU card.  If no error is detected, return to 'Checkout Guide'.

NOTE:   Don't touch the keyboard and  pointing device when the system board  test is running.  This may cause an unexpected error.

• If FRU code 10 appears, replace the system board but do not replace  the CPU card. Transfer the CPU card from the old system  board to the new system board.

  • If FRU code 11 appears, reseat the CPU card.
  • Rerun the test to verify the fix.
  • If FRU code 11 remains, replace the CPU card.

If this procedure does not correct the problem, go to 'Undetermined Problems'.

(Models 760C/760CD/760E/760ED)

1. Go to the diagnostic menu screen by  selecting Test in the Easy-Setup menu.
2. Select DSP and run the diagnostic tests.

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.

Do the following to display the errors.

1. End the test, if it is running.
2. Press Ctrl+A to select the advanced diagnostic mode.
3. Press Ctrl+E .
4. The error log appears.
5. To exit the screen, select the cancel icon or press Esc .

The error log is not saved when the system is powered-off.

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, an HDD-1, or a PCMCIA-1.
2. If the problem remains, replace the system board.

The PCMCIA-1, 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, HDD-1, or PCMCIA-1 icons represent the first drive in the system configuration for each type of device.

Similarly, the FDD-2 or PCMCIA-2 icons represent the second drive, usually attached through a port replicator or an expansion unit. The HDD-2 icon represents the hard disk drive in the UltraBay.

The HDD-3 and HDD-4 icons represent the hard disk drive, attached through an expansion unit.

Do the following to format the hard disk.

  Make sure the address of the drive to be formatted is correct. This procedure erases all information on the disk.

1. Power-off the computer.- Insert the ThinkPad Hardware Maintenance Diskette  Version 1.20  into diskette drive A and power-on the computer.

   NOTE:   You can use this maintenance diskette for any ThinkPad model.

   • Select Format the hard disk from the main menu.
   • Select the drive from the menu.
   • Follow the instructions on the screen.

  Important Notes

• Only certified trained personnel  should service the computer.

• Read FRU service procedures* before replacing any FRUs.

  • Be extremely careful during write operations  such as copying, saving, or formatting. Drives in the computer that you are servicing  might have been rearranged or the drive startup  sequence might have been altered.  If you select an incorrect drive,  data or programs can be written over.
  • Replace FRUs only for the correct model. When you replace the FRU, make sure the model of the machine  and FRU part number are correct by referring to the part list.
  • FRUs should not be replaced because of a single, un-reproducible  failure. Single failures can occur from a variety of reasons  that have nothing to do with a hardware defect such as:  cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors.  FRU replacement should be considered only when  a recurring problem exists.  If this is suspected, clear the error log and run the test again.  Do not replace any FRUs if log errors do not reappear.
  • Be careful not to replace a non-defective FRU.

How to Use Error Messages

Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. The cause of the first error code can result in false error codes being displayed. If no error code is displayed, see if the error symptom is listed in the 'Symptom-to-FRU Index'.

Port Replicator Problems

If you suspect a problem with the Port Replicator, see 'Port Replicator Checkout' in the Common Devices Checkout section for more information.

How to Diagnose Multiple FRUs

If the adapter or device has more than one FRU, the error code could be caused by either FRU. Before replacing multiple FRUs, try removing or exchanging each FRU, one by one in the designated sequence, to see if the symptoms change.

  Supervisor and Hard Disk Passwords

The supervisor password and the hard disk password (HDP) are security features that are used to protect the system and the hard disk data from unauthorized access.

No overriding capability is provided. If only a hard disk password is set, obtaining permission from the password owner to unlock the password is a prerequisite for running diagnostic tests and performing service. If both supervisor password and hard disk password are set, you can enter Easy-Setup by pressing the Enter key or power-on password at the supervisor password prompt. In this case, the Password, Start up, and Initialize icons cannot be selected.

See 'Password Combinations (POP, HDP, PAP)' for more information about passwords.

When the power-on password (POP), hard disk password (HDP), and supervisor password (PAP) are used, the following situations may occur:

• When POP is the same as HDP-1 or HDP-2

The POP prompt appears, but one of the HDP prompts does not appear.

• When POP is not the same as HDP-1 and HDP-2

  The POP, HDP-1, and HDP-2 prompts all appear.

  • When PAP is used with HDP-1 or HDP-2

  When PAP is used, HDP-1 or HDP-2 are  enabled automatically, but no HDP prompt  appears. HDP-1 and HDP-2 are set the same as PAP.

  Do not drop or apply any shock to the hard disk drive. The hard disk drive is sensitive to physical shock. Incorrect handling can cause damage and permanent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk drive, have the user make a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk. Never remove the hard disk drive while the system is operating or is in suspend mode.

Remove the hard disk drive exactly as shown in the figure. Do not apply any extra force to the hard disk drive when removing it.

 

NOTE: After replacing the hard disk drive, latch the removal strap into the correct position.
