Error messages
The following is a list of the messages that the BIOS can display. Most of them
occur during POST. Some of them display information about a hardware device,
e.g., the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a problem with a
device, such as the way it has been configured. Following the list are explanations
of the messages and remedies for reported problems.
Note: If your system displays one of the messages marked below with an
asterisk (*), write down the message and contact your dealer. If your system
fails after you have made the changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer,
enter Setup and load the Setup defaults to correct the error.
