When the power is turned on, the system performs the self-diagnostic Power On Self Test (POST)
embedded in the BIOS ROM. The POST tests and initializes each IC on the system board.
If an error message appears on the display, perform Check 1.
If there is no error message, go to Procedure 2.
If FREE-DOS or Windows 7 Home Edition is loaded normally, go to Procedure
3.
Check 1 If the following error message is displayed on the screen, press the F1 key as
prompted. These errors occur when the system configuration preserved in the
RTC memory (generally called CMOS memory) does not match the actual
configuration or when the data is lost.
If you press the F1 key as prompted by the message, the TSETUP screen
appears to set the system configuration. If the error message appears
frequently when the power is turned on, replace the RTC battery. If any other
error message is displayed, perform Check 2.
Check 2 If the following error message is displayed on the screen, press any key as
prompted by the message.
The error message appears when either data stored in RAM to be resumed is
lost because the battery has been exhausted or the system board is faulty.
