RM Mobile One - Error Messages During Start-up

Error Messages During Start-up
If a non-fatal error is detected during start-up (i.e. an error which does not
prevent the system from starting up), an error message is displayed on your
screen. Note the error message and then press <F1> to continue. This section
lists some of the error messages which are displayed and suggests how to
correct the error using the Setup program. There may also be some error
message codes in the System board User Manual (if supplied).
If an error message is displayed on the screen, which is not listed, contact
RM for further information on the error which has been detected.
If the POST (Power On Self Tests) detect a fatal error during start-up (i.e. an
error which will not allow the system to continue the start-up procedure),
your notebook has developed a serious problem and you should contact RM
for assistance. Fatal errors are usually communicated through a series of
audible beeps. Note, however, that some notebooks always beep when the
BIOS System Configuration screen is displayed to signal that the POST
routines are finished.
Cache Memory Bad, Do Not Enable Cache!
The external cache memory is defective.
CMOS Battery State Low
The battery in your system, which provides power to CMOS to store the
system settings, is low in power and needs to be changed or recharged
(depending on the battery type). Leave the notebook switched on for 48
hours to recharge the battery.
CMOS Checksum Failure
When you save changes made in Setup and exit the Setup program, a
checksum value is generated. This value is stored and used for error
checking. If this stored value is different from the value determined by the
POST routines during start-up, the CMOS Checksum Failure error message
is displayed. Change the Setup to the optimal settings then change any
additional variances according to the model of notebook (see page 61 for
details on the Setup program). If this error message is displayed frequently,
you may have a hardware problem and should contact RM.
Note: Some viruses can change the BIOS configuration and cause a
checksum failure. Check by running a virus checking program.
CMOS System Options Not Set
The system settings stored in Setup are either corrupt or non-existent. Run
the Setup program and make any necessary changes. If the password options
have been corrupted, the password reverts to the default password.
Keyboard Error
There is an error with the keyboard connector or a key is being held down.
Check that the keyboard connector is plugged into the rear of the notebook
correctly.
