3.1 System Test and Initialization
These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests,
you will either hear a few short beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of
errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors.
Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions:
Press <F1> to RESUME
Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the boot up sequence.
System configuration verification
These routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the CMOS memory.
If they do not match, the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run the BIOS setup
program to set the configuration information in memory.
There are three situations in which you will need to change the
CMOS settings:
1. You are starting your system for the first time
2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system
3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.
The FES-6905 CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery backup for data retention. However, you
will need to replace the complete unit when it finally runs down.
