POST Message Description
164 A change in the memory configuration occurred. This error can be caused
by adding, removing, or incorrectly installing memory.
Note: The computer can be used with decreased memory capacity until
the error is corrected.
Action:
1. If you added memory, see Installing Options in Your Personal Computer
and Chapter 5, “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on
page 61 of this booklet to verify that the new memory is correct for
your computer, and that it is installed and configured correctly.
2. If you added or removed memory, you must save the new
configuration in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Refer to the
Important
text box on page 64 for further information and instructions
on saving the configuration.
3. Running the diagnostic programs might isolate the location of the
problem DIMM and provide additional information. (See “Diagnostic
programs” on page 136 for information about diagnostic programs
provided with your computer.)
If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the computer
serviced.
167 A different microprocessor was installed that is not supported by the
current POST/BIOS (system programs).
Action:
1. Obtain the latest POST/BIOS flash update diskette image. See “Setting
remote administration” on page 76 update..
2. Perform the POST/BIOS flash update procedure.
If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the computer
serviced.
168 Alert on LAN is not working correctly.
Action: Set Alert on LAN to enabled in the Configuration/Setup Utility
program. See Chapter 5, “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program”
on page 61. Verify that the Ethernet cable is attached to both client and
server and that the appropriate software is installed on both the client and
the server.
If this does not correct the problem, have the computer serviced.
175 The primary copy of secure data is damaged. This can occur if the
computer is turned off while the Configuration/Setup Utility program is
updating the administrator password or startup sequence.
Action: POST will attempt to use the alternate copy of secure data to
correct the primary copy. If the operation is successful, the administrator
password and startup sequence will remain as they were before the
Configuration/Setup Utility program was invoked and this error will not
appear during the next power-on. If the operation is not successful, other
POST errors might appear and the system board must be replaced.
