NOTE
If you are a system integrator, VAR or OEM, a POST
diagnostics card is recommended for port 80h codes.
Refer to Appendix D.
Memory Error
If you encounter memory error, follow the procedures below.
1. Check to determine if SIMM modules are improperly installed.
2. Make sure that different types of SIMMs have not been
installed in different banks (e.g., a mixture of 2MB x 36 and 1
MB x 36 SIMMs in Banks 0).
3. Determine if different speeds of SIMMs have been installed in
the same or different banks, and the BIOS setup is configured
for the fastest speed of RAM used. It is recommended to use
the same RAM speed for SIMMs in different banks.
4. Check for bad SIMM modules or chips.
Losing the System’s Setup Configuration
1. Ensure that you are using a high quality power supply. A poor
quality power supply may cause the system to lose CMOS
setup. Refer to Chapter 1 of this manual for details.
2. If the above step does not fix the Setup Configuration prob-
lem, contact your vendor for repair.
