List of Error Codes
<Only when the port replicator is connected>
The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during
POST. Some of them display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory
installed. Others may indicate a problem with a device, such as the way it has been configured.
Following the list are explanations of the messages and remedies for reported problems.
If your system displays any of the below error messages other that the ones marked with an

system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and
install Setup defaults or correct the error.
