Specifications

Floppy disk(s) fail

Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller

is installed correctly. If no floppy drives are installed, be sure the Diskette Drive

selection in Setup is set to NONE or AUTO.

Hard Disk initializing, Please wait a moment...

Some hard drives require extra time to initialize.

Hard Disk Install Failure

Cannot find or initialize the hard drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller

is installed correctly. If no hard drives are installed, be sure the Hard Drive selection in

Setup is set to NONE.

Hard disk(s) diagnosis fail

The system may run specific disk diagnostic routines. This message appears if one or

more hard disks return an error when the diagnostics run.

Keyboard error or no keyboard present

Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached correctly and no

keys are pressed during POST. To purposely configure the system without a

keyboard, set the error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD.

The BIOS then ignores the missing keyboard during POST.

Keyboard is locked out - Unlock the key

This message usually indicates that one or more keys have been pressed during the

keyboard tests. Be sure no objects are resting on the keyboard.

Memory Test:

This message displays during a full memory test, counting doom the memory areas

being tested.

Memory test fail

If POST detects an error during memory testing, additional information appears giving

specifics about the type and location of the memory error.

Override enabled - Defaults loaded

If the system cannot boot using the current CMOS configuration, the BIOS can

override the current configuration with a set of BIOS defaults designed for the most

stable, minimal-performance system operations.

Press TAB to show POST screen

System OEMs may replace the Phoenix Technologies Award BIOS POST display with

their own proprietary display. Including this message in the OEM display permits the

operator to switch between the OEM display and the default POST display.
