5HDG 7KLV )LUVW A prerequisite for using this manual to service Dell computer systems is a basic knowledge of IBM®-compatible PCs and prior training in IBM-compatible PC troubleshooting techniques. In addition to information provided in this manual and the User’s Guide that came with the system, Dell provides the Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Guide for troubleshooting procedures and instructions on using the Dell diagnostics to test the computer system.
&+$37(5 6\VWHP 2YHUYLHZ Dell Precision™ 610 systems are high-speed, upgradable workstations designed around Intel ® Pentium® II Xeon™ microprocessors with MMX™ technology. These Dell ® systems support the high-performance Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus and the accelerated graphics port (AGP) bus. Each system also has an Industry-Standard Architecture (ISA) design with one ISA slot that allows you to configure the computer system to your initial requirements and then upgrade it as necessary.
6\VWHP )HDWXUHV The system includes the following features: Dual-processor capability Advanced combination PCI expansion and ISA subsystem Plug and Play capability Enhanced dual-interface enhanced integrated drive electronics (EIDE) subsystem SCSI support using two integrated SCSI channels — The primary (Adaptec AIC-7890) channel provides Ultra2/Wide lowvoltage differential (LVD) (80-MB/sec) support for high-performance SCSI hard-disk drives and an optional redundant arrays of independent disks
When following the procedures in this manual, assume that the location or direction relative to the computer is as shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-3 points out many of the system’s internal components and backpanel features.
After all legacy cards have been configured by the operating system or with the ICU, the computer automatically assigns any required memory space, IRQ lines, and DMA channels to any installed Plug and Play ISA expansion cards and PCI expansion cards the next time the computer is rebooted. Chapter 4, “Using the ISA Configuration Utility,” in the Dell Precision WorkStation 610 Mini Tower Systems User’s Guide describes the ICU and provides instructions for using it to configure the computer.
+DUG 'LVN 'ULYH 2SWLRQV Dell Precision 610 mini tower systems have eight drive bays for installing the following types of drives (see Figure 1-5): The externally accessible drive bays at the front of the computer consist of one 3.5-inch drive bay (dedicated to a 3.5-inch slimline diskette drive) and three 5.25-inch drive bays that can hold up to three half-height, 5.25-inch devices—typically tape drives or CD-ROM drives. Alternately, 3.5-inch devices can be installed in the 5.
NOTE: The externally accessible drive bays at the front of the computer are normally used for diskette drives, CD-ROM drives, and/or tape drives. Harddisk drives should be installed in the internal hard-disk drive positions described in “Hard-Disk Drive Options” found earlier in this chapter. For detailed information about the data storage subsystem, see Chapter 10, “Installing Drives,” in the User’s Guide.
The 10/100-Mbps NIC supports a 10-Mbps direct connection to either a Category 3 or a Category 5 Ethernet cable. When the NIC operates in the 100-Mbps mode, a Category 5 Ethernet cable must be used. Chapter 5, “Using the Network Interface Controller,” in the User’s Guide provides instructions for connecting the computer to, and configuring it for use on, an Ethernet network. 86% USB capability simplifies connection of peripheral devices such as mice, printers, and computer speakers.
&RPSXWHU 6HUYLFH The following subsections provide service-related information about the computer. 6\VWHP 3RZHU 6XSSO\ The 330-W system power supply can operate from an AC power source of 115 VAC at 60 Hz or 230 VAC at 50 Hz.

([SDQVLRQ &DUGV There are seven expansion-card connectors on the system board (see Figure 4-18). Expansion-card connectors PCI1 through PCI5 support 32-bit PCI expansion cards; expansion-card connector AGP supports a 32-bit AGP expansion card; and expansion-card connector ISA1 can accommodate an 8- or 16-bit ISA expansion card. NOTES: Connector ISA1 shares expansion-card slot space with connector PCI5. Therefore, only one card of either type can be installed in this slot.

To install a Slot 2 SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly, press the cartridge firmly into its connector until it is firmly seated. You must use up to 25 pounds of force to fully seat the cartridge in its connector. Place the top bracket on top of the cartridge. Install the four large thumbscrews through the top bracket holes and through the holes in the guide bracket assembly to secure the heat sink to the system board.
