System Utilities
BIOS Setup Utility
BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) includes a CMOS SETUP utility which allows user to configure required
setting or to active certain system features.The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS SRAM of
the mainboard. When the power is turned off, the battery on the mainboard supplies the necessary power to
the CMOS SRAM. When the power is turned on, pushing the <Del> button during the BIOS POST (Power-On
Self Test) will take you to the CMOS SETUP screen. You can enter the BIOS setup screen by pressing
“Ctrl+F1”. When setting up BIOS for the first time, it is recommended that you save the current BIOS to a disk
in the event that BIOS needs to be reset to its original settings. Q-Flash allows the user to quickly and easily
update or backup BIOS without entering the operating system. BIOS is a Window s-based utility that doesn’t
required users to boot to DOS before upgrading BIOS but directly download and update BIOS from the
Internet.

Power-On Self-Test (POST) Code
Each time you turn on the system, the Power-on Self Test (POST) is initiated. Several items are tested during
POST, but is for the most part transparent to the user.
The Power-On Self Test (POST) is a BIOS procedure that boots the system, initializes and diagnoses the
system components, and controls the operation of the power-on password option. If POST discovers errors in
system operations at power-on, it displays error messages on screen, generates a check point code at port
80h or even halts the system if the error is fatal.
The main components on the main board that must be diagnosed and/or initialized by POST to ensure system
functionality are as follows:
T
Microprocessor with built-in numeric co-processor and cache memory subsystem
T
Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller
T
Interrupt system
T
Three programmable timers
T
ROM subsystem
T
RAM subsystem
T
CMOS RAM subsystem and real time clock/calendar with battery backup
T
Onboard parallel interface controller
T
Embedded hard disk interface and one diskette drive interface
T
Keyboard and auxiliary device controllers
T
1.44M floppy controller
T
I/O ports
T
One parallel port
T
One PS/2-compatible mouse port
One PS/2-compatible keyboard port
NOTE: When Post executes a task, it uses a series of preset numbers called check points to be latched at
T
port 80h, indicating the stages it is currently running. This latch can be read and shown on a debug board.
The following table describes the BIOS common tasks carried out by POST. Each task is denoted by an
unique check point number. For other unique check point numbers that are not listed in the table, refer to the
corresponding product service guide.
Post Checkpoints List: The list may vary accordingly depending on your BIOS
NOTE: IISA POST codes are output to port address 80h. EISA POST codes are typically output to port
address 300h.

POST Error Messages List
If you cannot run the diagnostics program tests but did receive a POST error message, use “POST Error
Messages List” to diagnose system problems. If you did not receive any error message, look for a description
of your error symptoms in “Index of Symptom-to-FRU Error Message” on page 75.
NOTE: When you have deemed it necessary to replace an FRU, and have done so, you must run a total
system check to ensure that no other activity has been affected by the change. This system check can
be done through the diagnostics program.
NOTE: Check all power supply voltages, switch, and jumper settings before you replace the main board. Also
check the power supply voltages if you have a “system no-power” condition.
If you are unable to correct the problem by using the “BIOS Messages List” table and “Error Symptoms List”
table, go to “Undetermined Problems”.
To diagnose a problem, first find the BIOS error messages in the left column. If directed to a check procedure,
replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/FRU
listed in right column is the most likely cause.
BIOS Messages
Action/FRU
BIOS ROM checksum error - System halted
The checksum of the BIOS code in the BIOS chip is
incorrect, indicating the BIOS code may have become
corrupt. Contact your system dealer to replace the BIOS.
CMOS Battery Failed
The CMOS battery is no longer functional. Contact your
system dealer for a replacement the BIOS.
CMOS Checksum Error- defaults loaded
Checksum of CMOS is incorrect, so the system loads the
default equipment configuration. A checksum error may
indicate that CMOS has become corrupt. A weak battery
may have caused this error. Check the battery and replace
if necessary.
CPU at nnnn
Displays the running speed of CPU.
Display switch is set incorrectly
The display switch on the motherboard can be set to either
monochrome or color. This message indicates the switch is

The system may run specific disk diagnostic routines. This
message appears if one or more hard disks return an error
when the diagnostics run.
Keyboard Error Or No Keyboard Present
Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is
attached correctly and no keys are pressed during POST.
To purposely configure the system without a keyboard, set
the error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT

Intermittent Problems
Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a
hardware defect, such as: cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement
should be considered only when a recurring problem exists.
When analyzing an intermittent problem, do the following:
79
1.
Run the advanced diagnostic test for the system board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2.
If no error is detected, do not replace any FRU.
3.
If any error is detected, replace the FRU. Rerun the test to verify that there are no more errors.
