6.1 System Test and Initialization
These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines
encounter an error, you will either hear a few short beeps or see an
error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal
and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot sequence
with non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on
the screen along with the following instruction:
press <F1> to RESUME
Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the boot
sequence.
System configuration verification
These routines check the current system configuration against the
values stored in the card's CMOS memory. If they do not match,
the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run
the BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in
memory.
There are three situations in which you will need to change the
CMOS settings:
1. You are starting your system for the first time.
2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system.
3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration
information has been erased.
The PPC-57 board's CMOS memory has an integrated lithium
battery backup. The battery backup should last ten years in normal
service. When it finally runs down, you will need to replace the
complete unit.
