Here's what to do:
• If you are using Rapid Resume, complete the following steps:
- If you have not changed your hardware (installed or removed an option),
check your Services and Support Guide 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 changed your hardware (installed or removed an option), 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 the system unit on
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 Services
and Support Guide for information on obtaining service.
• If you are not using Rapid Resume:
- Press Enter while the error message is displayed to start the Configuration/
Setup Utility. Look through the Configuration/Setup Utility and verify that
the options with next to them were supposed to change. If so, choose
Save Settings at the bottom of the Configuration/Setup Utility main menu
and press Enter. Then exit the Configuration/Setup Utility. For more
information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility, see page 61. If
options changed that were not supposed to, check your Services and
Support Guide for information on obtaining service.
The clock module on the system board may not be set correctly. To set the
correct date and time, press Enter while the error message is displayed to enter
the Configuration/Setup Utility. For instructions on using the Configuration/
