Description
A parity error was found in the system bus (Parity
Check 1) or the I/O bus (Parity Check 2). BIOS
attempts to locate and display the address on the
screen. If it cannot locate the address, it displays.
Displayed after any recoverable error message.
Optional message displayed during POST. Can be
turned off in Setup.
Previous POST did not successfully complete. POST
loads default values and offers to run Setup. If the
failure was caused by incorrect values and they are not
corrected, the next boot will likely fail. On systems with
control of wait states, improper Setup settings can also
terminate POST and cause this error on the next boot.
Run Setup and verify that the wait-state configuration is
correct. This error is cleared the next time the system is
booted.
Real time clock fails BIOS test. May require board
repair.
Shadow RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64K block at
which the error was detected.
Where nnnn is the amount of shadow RAM in kilobytes
successfully tested.
The CMOS clock battery indicator shows the battery is
dead. Replace the battery and run Setup to reconfigure
the system.
The system BIOS is copied to shadow RAM.
The RAM cache failed the BIOS test and BIOS has
disabled the cache.
The system CMOS has been corrupted or incorrectly
modified, perhaps by an application program that
changes data stored in CMOS. Run Setup and
reconfigure the system either by getting the default
values or making your own selections.
The system RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64K block
at which the error was detected.
Where nnnn is the amount of system RAM in kilobytes
successfully tested.
