may have failed.
System CMOS checksum bad - run SETUP
Problem: Something in the nonvolatile CMOS RAM is incorrect. It has
been corrupted or modified incorrectly, possibly by an application
program that changes stored data in CMOS.
Solution(s): Run the BIOS setup program to determine what is wrong, and
correct it. If the error occurs repeatedly, the EPC-8A’s battery has
failed.
System battery is dead - Replace and run SETUP
Problem: The CMOS clock battery indicator shows the battery is dead.
Solution(s): Run the BIOS setup program to determine what is wrong, and
correct it. If the error occurs repeatedly, the EPC-8A’s battery has
failed and needs to be replaced.
