Troubleshooting & Error Messages
CMOS RAM ERROR, CHECK BATTERY / RUN SETUP
Problem:
Something in the CMOS RAM is incorrect.
Solution(s): Run the BIOS setup program to determine what is wrong, and correct
it. If the error occurs repeatedly, the EPC's battery has failed.
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
Problem:
No boot disk could be found. Your hard disk may not have been
partitioned into logical drive(s). PCs look for logical drives to boot
from. Hard disks are physical drives; partitions are logical drives.
Solution(s): If your BIOS setup screen has all disks disabled, or if your hard disk
is disabled and no floppy diskette is inserted in the A: drive, run the
BIOS setup program and verify that all disk parameters are correct. If
they are, insert a bootable floppy disk in the A: drive and press enter.
If a hard disk is present, verify that it is properly partitioned and
formatted as a system disk and one partition is set active.
DISKETTE DRIVES OR TYPES MISMATCH ERROR - RUN SETUP
Problem:
The floppy diskette(s) installed in the system do not match the
configuration information listed in the BIOS setup screen. This may
be due to incorrect entries in the BIOS setup screen or one or both
drives may not be responding at power-up.
Solution(s): Press CTRL+ALT+ESC to run the BIOS setup program. Make sure
the BIOS setup entries relating to floppy drives correctly reflect the
attached floppy drives. If you have no floppy drives, both drive A
and drive B should be set to none.
Also, verify that all floppy drives are firmly connected (via ribbon
cable) and that each drive has power. If the floppy drive is getting
power through the ribbon cable, make sure that the appropriate
jumpers are set correctly.
