The system may run specific disk diagnostic
routines. This message appears if one or more
hard disks return an error when the diagnostics
run.
Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the
keyboard is attached correctly and no keys are
pressed during POST. To purposely configure the
system without a keyboard, set the error halt
condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT
KEYBOARD. The BIOS then ignores the missing
keyboard during POST.
This message usually indicates that one or more
keys have been pressed during the keyboard
tests. Be sure no objects are resting on the
keyboard.
This message displays during a full memory test,
counting down the memory areas being tested.
If POST detects an error during memory testing,
additional information appears giving specifics
about the type and location of the memory error.
If the system cannot boot using the current CMOS
configuration, the BIOS can override the current
configuration with a set of BIOS defaults designed
for the most stable, minimal-performance system
operations.
System OEMs may replace the Phoenix
Technologies Award BIOS POST display with their
own proprietary display. Including this message in
the OEM display permits the operator to switch
between the OEM display and the default POST
display.
POST detects an error in the primary master IDE
hard drive.
POST detects an error in the secondary master
IDE hard drive.
POST detects an error in the primary slave IDE
hard drive.
POST detects an error in the secondary slave IDE
hard drive.
