142 Chapter 8: Diagnosing and recovering from problems
Here's what to do:
• If you changed the processor, it may not be fully supported by the BIOS. The
computer will operate normally, but you will always see this error when you
turn on the computer.
• If you did not change the processor, turn off the computer, wait 10 seconds,
and then turn on the computer again.
Make sure the battery is installed correctly. If the error continues, install a new
battery. For instructions on installing the battery, see "Replacing the system
battery" on page 71.
• If you are using Rapid Resume, complete the following steps:
- If you have not installed or removed hardware, check your Guide to
HelpWare and All the Extras folder for information on obtaining service.
Note: Any work that you did not save before the computer was turned off
cannot be retrieved.
- If you have installed or removed hardware, press the on/off button on the
system unit to turn it off. Return the hardware to its previous configuration,
wait 10 seconds, and then turn on the system unit again. If the error does
not reoccur, save any work that you want to keep and reinstall your
hardware. If the error occurs again, check your Guide to HelpWare and All
the Extras folder for information on obtaining service.
• If you are not using Rapid Resume:
- Press Enter while the error message is displayed to start the Setup Utility.
Look through the Setup Utility and verify that the options with
them were supposed to change. If so, press the Esc key and then press
Enter to save the new settings. Then exit the Setup Utility. For more
information on using the Setup Utility, see "Using the Setup Utility" on
page 29. If options changed that were not supposed to, check your Guide to
HelpWare and All the Extras folder for information on obtaining service.
