Error Messages
In the event that you receive an error message, do not continue using the
computer. Note the message and take corrective action immediately. This section
describes the different types of error messages and suggests corrective measures.
There are two general types of error messages:
•
Software
•
System
1.7.1
Software Error Messages
Software error messages are returned by your operating system or application.
These messages typically appear after you boot the operating system or when you
run your applications. If you receive this type of message, consult your application
or operating system manual for help.
1.7.2
System Error Messages
A system error message indicates a problem with the computer itself. These
messages normally appear during the power-on self-test, before the operating
system prompt appears. Table 1-1 lists the system error messages.
