Error Messages
Your computer’s built-in memory (ROM) contains a series of
diagnostics programs, called power-on diagnostics, which your
computer runs automatically every time you turn it on. These
programs check internal devices such as ROM, RAM, the timer,
the keyboard controller, and the hard disk drive.
When the system detects an error that isn’t serious, such as an
incorrectly defined diskette drive, you see an error message
and the following prompt:
Press <Fl> to run SETUP or <F2> to continue
Write down the error message and press to continue.
If the system detects a serious error, the computer cancels
further checking and halts system initialization. The error
message remains on the screen and the computer locks up. If
this happens, see “The Computer Won’t Start” in this chapter.
If none of the suggestions listed there solves the problem,
contact the Epson Connection as soon as possible. Report any
error messages when you request technical assistance.
