model 150 not booting. bad tape/cd.

["Steve Richter" <srichter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

thanks for the responses.

 

I have taken off the side panel and looked at cable connections. all look ok. I gave them all a push just for good luck.

 

I reboot and get the same result. 3 audible alarms, then the B101 4507 error code.

 

I am searching ibm online manuals for the part nbrs of the tape and cd without much success. The service manual I have for the 150 says the qic-2gb tape is part nbr 16G8571. I see no mention of the cd rom part nbr.  I search ibm books for the part nbr and get no hits.

 

anyone know the part nbr/ feature code of the cd rom and qic-2gb tape on a 9401 model 150, twinax entry?

 

Anyone know a good source for parts?  I search on ebay, but you have to be lucky to find something like this there.  and I think I have run out of luck for the week already.

 

thanks for the help,

steve
