defective or 3) the motherboard is defective or grounded to the case.

b) +3V3SB LED – This is the standby power indicator. It will be lit only if the power plug is

plugged into the motherboard, the on/ff switch on the power supply turn on, and the +3v

standby power is present.

c) 3.3V LED – This light should stay on after the system is turned on. It means the 3.3v power

is present.

d) +5V LED – This light should stay on after the system is turned on. It means the 5v power is

present.

e) +12V LED – This light should stay on after the system is turned on. It means the +12v power

is present.

f) -12V LED – This light should stay on after the system is turned on. It means the -12v power

is present.

3. If any of the above LED is not working as indicated, please verify the problem accordingly.

4.As the computer continues to boot, POST codes will be displayed on the debugger card. Each

POST code represents something. You can look up the meaning of the code in the POST code list.

5. For example, if the POST card displays “C1,” it means that something may be wrong with your

DRAM module and its functionality needs to be inspected.
