List of Error Codes

The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display.  Most of them occur during POST.  Some of them display informa-
tion 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.
If your system displays one of except the messages marked below with an asterisk (*), write down the message and contact
Panasonic Technical Support.  If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and
install Setup defaults or correct the error.

*0251  System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used

System CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data
stored in CMOS.  The BIOS installed Default SETUP Values. If you do not want these values, enter Setup and enter your
own values.  If the error persists, check the system battery or contact Panasonic Technical Support.

*0280  Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used

Previous POST did not complete successfully.  POST loads default values and offers to run Setup.  If the failure was caused

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
