DISKETTE DRIVES OR TYPES MISMATCH ERROR - RUN SETUP
Type of diskette drive installed in the system is different from the CMOS
definition. Run setup to reconfigure the drive type correctly.
DISPLAY SWITCH IS SET INCORRECTLY
The display switch on the motherboard can be set to either mono-
chrome or color. This indicates the switch is set to a different setting
than indicated in Setup. Determine which setting is correct, and then
either turn off the system and change the jumper, or enter Setup and
change the VIDEO selection.
DISPLAY TYPE HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST BOOT
Since last powering off the system, the display adapter has been
changed. You must configure the system for the new display type.
ERROR ENCOUNTERED INITIALIZING HARD DRIVE
Hard drive cannot be initialized. Be sure the adapter is installed cor-
rectly and all cables are correctly and firmly attached. Also, be sure the
correct hard drive type is selected in Setup (refer to page 76).
ERROR INITIALIZING HARD DISK CONTROLLER
Cannot initialize controller. Make sure the card is correctly and firmly
installed in the bus. Be sure the correct hard drive type is selected in
Setup. Also, check to see if any jumper needs to be set correctly on the
hard drive.
FLOPPY DISK CNTRLR ERROR OR NO CNTRLR PRESENT
Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller. Make sure the con-
troller is installed correctly and firmly. If no floppy drive is installed, be
sure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.
KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT
Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached cor-
rectly and no keys are being pressed during the boot.
If you are purposely configuring the system without a keyboard, set the
error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. This
will cause the BIOS to ignore the missing keyboard and continue the
boot.
