Why is Lenovo ThinkServer TD230 Server screen jittering or distorted?
- T
  Travis MillerSep 8, 2025
  If the Lenovo Server monitor has screen jitter, or the screen image is wavy, unreadable, rolling, or distorted, and the monitor self-tests show that it is working correctly, consider the monitor's location. Magnetic fields from nearby devices like transformers, appliances, fluorescent lights, and other monitors can cause these issues. Move the device and the monitor at least 305 mm (12 inches) apart. Reseat the monitor. If the problem persists, replace the monitor or, as a last resort by a trained service technician, the system board.

  Jennifer HoweAug 25, 2025
  If all or some keys on the Lenovo Server keyboard do not work, ensure the keyboard cable is securely connected and that both the server and monitor are turned on. Verify the keyboard's compatibility with the server, referring to the Lenovo website. If using a USB keyboard connected to a USB hub, disconnect it and connect it directly to the server. If the issue persists, try replacing the keyboard or consult a trained service technician to replace the system board.

  Tamara PrestonAug 27, 2025
  If a Lenovo optional device that was just installed does not work, ensure the device is designed for the server by checking the Lenovo website for supported options. Verify that you followed the installation instructions and that the device is correctly installed, without loosening any other devices or cables. Update the configuration information in the Setup Utility program. If issues persist, try reseating the newly installed device.

  Philip AllenAug 28, 2025
  If the Lenovo Server DVD drive is not recognized, ensure the SATA channel (primary or secondary) to which the DVD drive is attached is enabled in the Setup Utility program. Also, verify that all cables and jumpers are installed correctly, the signal cable and connector are not damaged, and the correct device driver is installed for the DVD drive. Reseat the DVD drive and its cables. If the problem persists, replace the DVD drive, its cables, or, as a last resort by a trained service technician, the system board.

What to do if Lenovo Server does not turn off?
- R
  Richard OsborneAug 30, 2025
  If the Lenovo Server is not turning off, determine whether you are using an Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) or a non-ACPI operating system. If you are using a non-ACPI operating system: Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Turn off the server by pressing the power-control button for 5 seconds. Restart the server. If the server fails the POST and the power-control button does not work, disconnect the power cord for 20 seconds; then, reconnect the power cord and restart the server. If the problem remains or if you are using an ACPI-aware operating system, suspect the system board.

What to do if multiple Lenovo Server DIMMs are failing?
- R
  rachel38Sep 14, 2025
  If multiple rows of Lenovo Server DIMMs in a branch are identified as failing, reseat the DIMMs, then restart the server. Replace the lowest-numbered DIMMs with identical known good DIMMs, then restart the server. Repeat as necessary. If the failures continue after all identified pairs are replaced, go to step 4 on page 18. Return the removed DIMMs, one pair at a time, to their original connectors, restarting the server after each pair, until a pair fails. Replace each DIMM in the failed pair with an identical known good DIMM, restarting the server after you reinstall each DIMM. Replace the failed DIMM. Repeat step 3 on page 18 until you have tested all removed DIMMs. As a last resort, a trained service technician should replace the system board.

How to troubleshoot blank screen on Lenovo Server?
- T
  Troy JordanSep 5, 2025
  If the Lenovo Server screen is blank, and the server is attached to a KVM switch, bypass the switch by connecting the monitor cable directly to the server. Ensure the server is powered on. Check that the monitor cables are correctly connected, the monitor is turned on, and the brightness and contrast are properly adjusted. Confirm that no POST errors are generated during startup and that the correct server is controlling the monitor, if applicable. For further assistance, consult the section on solving undetermined problems.

  Gregory WilliamsSep 3, 2025
  If a Lenovo Server serial device does not work, ensure the device is compatible with the server, the serial port is enabled and assigned a unique address, and the device is connected to the correct connector. Reseat the failing serial device and serial cable. If the issue persists, replace the failing serial device, serial cable, or have a trained service technician replace the system board.
