used

values and they are not corrected, the next boot
will likely fail. On systems with control of
wait

, improper Setup settings can also
terminate POST and cause this error on the next
boot. Run Setup and verify that the waitstate
configuration is correct. This error is cleared the
next time the system is booted.
