I've never gone though the process it install hardware. It has always been IBM doing it. I have looked over the shoulder of the IBM person and from what I recall there are several different steps that must complete properly (and in the proper order) to install new hardware. It sure sounds like something did not properly complete during the install process. Just a wild guess on my part.
