6-4 Solving System Problems
Your hard drive might need more time to spin up before
the system boots. Change the “Hard Disk Pre-Delay” to a
higher setting from the CMOS Setup Utility “BIOS
Features Setup” menu.
System does not boot and error message displayed
on screen.
Run the Setup Utility (see Chapter 3). Check that the
parameters are set correctly, particularly if you just
installed an option.
System emits continuous beeps.
Turn the system off, wait at least five seconds, and turn the
system on. If the beeps continue, call your NEC CSD
dealer or the NEC CSD Technical Support Center.
System does not maintain date, time, system
configuration information.
Change the battery (see “Battery Replacement” in this
chapter). For assistance, call your NEC CSD dealer or the
NEC CSD Technical Support Center.
System does not boot from hard drive.
The system usually tries to start from the diskette drive
before it starts from the hard drive. Remove the diskette
from the diskette drive.
Change the boot order with the CMOS Setup Utility so the
hard drive boots before the diskette drive (see Chapter 3).
