Diagnostic LEDs
Diagnostic LEDs use signal display to help users understand their system. When POST
or Service Processor detects an error, the corresponding LEDs light up to alert the user
to the condition and help service personnel identify the failing component. A system
error single LED on the front panel and in the rear of the system first alters the users
that an error has occurred. Service personnel next check inside the system to determine which subsystem has an error LED lit. This information helps the service personnel to locate the failing component for replacement. The full failing path remians lit until
POST no longer exists or the error is fixed.

MSI Special Features
PC Alert™ III
The PC AlertTM III is a utility you can find in
the CD-ROM disk. The utility is just like your PC
doctor that can detect the following PC hardware
status during real time operation:
ö monitor CPU & system temperatures
ö monitor fan speed(s)
ö monitor system voltage
ö monitor chassis intrusion
If one of the items above is abnormal, the
program main screen will be immediately shown
on the screen, with the abnormal item highlighted
in red. This will continue to be shown until user
disables the warning.

MSI Reminds You...
1. Items shown on PC Alert™ III vary depending on your system status.
2. The mainboard bound with MS-9569 BMC card (Server Management Features) won’t support PC Alert™ III.
