; Has it been RECEIVED?
 
: Does it have a label with a gizmo number on it? (This is done in receiving.) If not, you need to get a label from Receiving for the system.
 
 
; Try to get it to POST
 
: See the other chart about this. It involves lots of troubleshooting. Whee! (See [[Getting the System to POST]])
 
: After trying to get it to POST, there are two possible next steps:
 
:# Go through the Eval 2 TRIAGE chart -- this is if you were able to determine the necessary information.
 
:# Manually determine the processer information -- this is if you were NOT able to determine the necessary information.
 
 
; Manually determine the Processor information
 
: This means visually check for the processor speed. Sometimes this is out in plain sight if you know what to look for. Other times, you need to remove a heat sink or other component in order to determine the speed. '''NOTE: You don't need to manually determine anything if you got the processor information from POST .'''
 
 
; Go through the Eval 2 Triage flow chart
 
: This is the chart that tells you how to determine what to do with the system. You'll need to know the processor speed by the time you get here.
 
: Triage will say to do one of three things:
 
:# Keep the system (in which case we will be filling out labels, paperwork, and pulling components from it).
 
:# Recycle the system (in which case we will be sending the box back to Eval 1).
 
:# Special Mining (in which case we will be harvesting the motherboard for testing).
 
 
; Fill out a KEEPER LABEL
 
: This is for keepers only. Record the processor information. Don't bother with the socket type if it's hidden. Record the number of DIMMs and circle the card slot types that are present. Write the processor speed and ID number neatly, and circle the processor type. Put the label on the front of the computer (opposite from wherever the cards' ports are visible from outside).
 
 
; Copy information from the TALLY SHEET
 
: Copy the ID number, the number of DIMM slots, and the processor class and speed onto the tally sheet.
 
 
; MINING (Removing components)
 
: Read the instruction sheet for what components we pull out. '''This is different from what we pull out in Eval 1.''' Check the instructions.
 
 
; PUT ON CART
 
: Make sure the label is facing out so it can be seen even if there are computers on top of and on boths sides of it. The back side should then be also visible.
 
 
; SPECIAL MINING
 
: See the instruction sheet.
 
 
; RECYCLE LABEL
 
: If the instructions say to recycle it, then label it with the reason (typically "< 500 MHz") and put it on the REJECT pile.
 
:* Do not put on a KEEPER sticker
 
:* Do not mine or fill out paperwork. This is done in Eval 1.
