BIOS Reference - POST Message
During the Power On Self Test (POST), if the BIOS detects an error reĆ
quiring you to do something to correct it, it will either sound a beep code
or display a message.
If a message is displayed, it will be accompanied by:
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, CTRL-ALT-ESC OR DEL TO ENTER SETUP
POST Beep
Currently there is only one beep code in BIOS. This code indicates that
a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video
screen to display any additional information. This beep code consists of
a single long beep followed by two short beeps.
Error Messages
One or more of the following messages may be displayed if the BIOS
detects an error during the POST. This list includes messages for both
the ISA and the EISA BIOS.
CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED
CMOS battery is no longer functional. It should be replaced.
CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR
Checksum of CMOS is incorrect. This can indicate that CMOS has beĆ
come corrupt. This error may have been caused by a weak battery.
Check the battery and replace if necessary.
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
No boot device was found. This could mean that either a boot drive was
not detected or the drive does not contain proper system boot files. InĆ
sert a system disk into Drive A: and press <Enter>. If you assumed the
system would boot from the hard drive, make sure the controller is inĆ
serted correctly and all cables are properly attached. Also be sure the
disk is formatted as a boot device. Then reboot the system.
DISKETTE DRIVES OR TYPES MISMATCH ERROR - RUN SETUP
Type of diskette drive installed in the system is different from the CMOS
definition. Run Setup to reconfigure the drive type correctly.
DISPLAY SWITCH IS SET INCORRECTLY
Display switch on the motherboard can be set to either monochrome or
color. This indicates the switch is set to a different setting than indicated
in Setup. Determine which setting is correct, and then either turn off
the system and change the jumper, or enter Setup and change the
VIDEO selection.
