Message
Description
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
Optional message displayed during POST. Can be
turned off in Setup.
Previous boot incomplete - Default
configuration used
Previous POST did not successfully complete. POST
loads default values and offers to run Setup. If the
failure was caused by incorrect values and they are
not corrected, the next boot will likely fail. On systems
with control of wait states, improper Setup settings
can also terminate POST and cause this error on the
next boot. Run Setup and verify that the wait-state
configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next
time the system is booted.
