S
TATUS
:
This erratum will not be fixed.

Memory Decrease Warning Message Not Displayed
P
ROBLEM
:
During POST, the BIOS will not generate and display a memory decrease warning message on
the screen.
I
MPLICATION
:
The user will not be warned about a decrease in the amount of memory.
W
ORKAROUND
:
None.
S
TATUS
:
This erratum was fixed in BIOS revision 4A3NT0X0.86A.0082.P07.
6.

P
ROBLEM
:
If the drive type in BIOS Setup is set to USER, the hard drive will not be detected by the
motherboard at boot.
I
MPLICATION
:
The hard drive will not be detected by the BIOS during the boot process and will not be

7.
Intel
®
EtherExpress
™
Pro/100B Fails to Initialize With Windows* 95
P
ROBLEM
:
The system BIOS allocates 48 KB of memory at location C000H:0 rather than 44 KB as
expected.
I
MPLICATION
:
Since the EtherExpress
™
Pro/100B attempts to map memory starting at location CB00H:0 by
default, this results in a resource conflict with the system BIOS. Therefore, Windows* 95 will be unable to
initialize the EtherExpress Pro/100B and an exclamation mark will be displayed in Device Manager for this
device.
W
ORKAROUND
:
Manually move the EtherExpress Pro/100B memory range to D000 or higher in Windows 95
Device Manager.
S
TATUS
:
This erratum was fixed in BIOS revision 4A3NT0X0.86A.0062.P06.
8.
Potential Battery Drain if No AC Power Applied
P
ROBLEM
:
A potential battery drain condition caused by the AC power loss recovery circuit can cause the
battery to source approximately 500
µ
A current instead of the typical 3
µ
A drawn when the system is powered
off. This drain condition can occur if AC power is removed from the power supply and the front panel on/off
switch is depressed.
I
MPLICATION
:
The excessive battery drain state can result in a shortened battery life. The battery will drain
completely over a period of 3 to 4 weeks if left in this state. Reapplying AC power eliminates the excessive
battery drain condition. A battery that has been completely drained will cause a CMOS checksum error to be
displayed the next time that the system is powered on.
