RROR ESSAGES
One or more of the following messages may be displayed if the BIOS detects an error
during the POST. This list includes messages for both the ISA and EISA BIOS.
CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED
1. If it's the first boot, check for the onboard battery jumper (jumper W4 for both the
cPCI-MXS64). The board is shipped with W4 jumper set to OFF
disconnected). This jumper must be shorted (ON) for proper
2. CMOS battery is no longer functional. It should be replaced.
CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR
Checksum of CMOS is incorrect. This indicates that CMOS has become corrupt. A weak
battery may have caused this error. Check the battery and replace if necessary.
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
No boot device was found. This could mean either a boot drive was not detected or the
drive does not contain proper system boot files. Insert a system disk into Floppy Drive A
and press Enter. If you assumed the system would boot from the hard drive, make sure the
controller is inserted correctly and all cables are properly attached. Also be sure the disk is
formatted as a boot device. Then reboot the system.
KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT
Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached correctly 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 BIOS to ignore the
missing keyboard and continue the boot.
OFFENDING SEGMENT
This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and RAM PARITY
ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the problem cannot be isolated.
PRESS F1 TO DISABLE NMI, F2 TO REBOOT
When BIOS detects a Non-maskable Interrupt condition, this will allow you to disable the
NMI and continue to boot, or you can reboot the system with the NMI enabled.
