located in the Product Information Guide.
To help you troubleshoot a problem, your computer has four lights labeled "A," "B," "C," and "D" on
the back panel. The lights can be yellow or green. When the computer starts normally, the patterns
or codes on the lights change as the boot process completes. If the POST portion of system boot
completes successfully, all four lights display solid green. If the computer malfunctions during the
