1.9.3 Correcting Error Conditions
As a general rule, if an error message says "Press F1 to continue," it is caused by a
configuration problem, which can be easily corrected. An equipment
malfunction is
more
likely to cause a fatal error, i.e., an error that causes complete system failure.
Here are some corrective measures for error conditions:
1.
Run Setup (See section 2.1). You must know the correct configuration values for
your system before you enter Setup, which is why you should write them down when
the system is correctly configured. An incorrect configuration is a major cause of
power-on error messages, especially for a new system.
2.
Remove the system unit cover (See Chapter 3, System Housing). Check that the
jumpers on the system board and any expansion boards are set correctly (see section
1.3 for system board jumper information).
3.
Check that all connectors and boards are securely plugged in.
If you go through the corrective steps above and still receive an error message, the cause
may be an equipment malfunction.
If you are sure that your configuration values are correct and your battery is in good
condition, the problem may lie in a damaged or defective chip.
In either case, contact an authorized service center for assistance.
