ERROR MESSAGES
When your computer’s power is switched on, the system
automatically goes through initialization, which includes
running the Power-On Self Test (POST). Fatal errors are
those that prevent the system from continuing the boot
process. If any are detected, an error message will appear
on the screen. The following list of error messages includes
causes and possible solutions.
Message
Diskette drive A Error or Diskette drive B Error.
Cause
Drive A or B is present but fails the BIOS POST
diskette tests.
Solution
Make sure the drive is defined with the correct
diskette type in the Setup Utility program and is
properly attached.
