Dead I/O Board?

2005-06-08 Thread Clinton Yelvington

Hey guys,

I seemed to have fixed my 2/10's jittery video problem, but now I  
have a new issue: When I hooked the KB and mouse back up, and plugged  
it in, it immediately powered up (without me hitting the switch) and  
displayed an I/O board error 52. I read that re-seating the I/O board  
could help but I tried that and no luck. when I hit the interrupt  
switch the Keyboard and Mouse aren't recognized.


Please help if you can,

Clinton Yelvington

Hi Clinton,

It may be enough to remove and replace the I/O board and card cage a few
times; this wipes the contacts so they make better contact.

If that doesn't work, try cleaning the gold card-edge connectors between
the CPU  I/O boards and the motherboard and between the motherboard and
the chassis.

If alcohol and a soft cloth are not sufficient to get them clean, you can
use a soft pencil eraser, but proceed gently or the gold will be erased.

Also check the card-edge sockets for bent contacts, dust, corrosion, etc.

If that doesn't do the trick, let us know.

Good luck!

James
