Thanks, Roberta > In general, the 1700 series of error codes refer to the hard drive subsystem. Without more information (what model ps/2? does it boot? did you run ibm diagnostics?) I cannot be more specific. Try running some diagnostics or swapping out parts to determine if the trouble is in the drive or in the the drive controller. Hope this helps.
