Invalid configuration information
Invalid EISA configuration storage
If you receive one of these messages after system startup, the configuration
information for your EISA system has been deleted. In this case you must restore

repeat the configuration procedure in its entirety (see user manual for EISA
configuration), or better still, you can reload the configuration data (SCI file) that
you saved on floppy disk back onto your system. This possibility is described
below.
