Warning Messages

2-1-1
through
2-4-4

Bit failure in the first 64 KB of main memory

3-1-1  

Slave DMA-register failure

Replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

3-1-2

Master DMA-register failure

3-1-3

Master interrupt-mask register failure

3-1-4

Slave interrupt-mask register failure

3-2-4

Keyboard-controller test failure

Check the keyboard cable and connector for proper connection. If the problem persists, replace
the keyboard. If the problem persists, replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

3-3-1

CMOS failure

Replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

3-3-2

System configuration check failure

3-3-3

Keyboard controller not detected

3-3-4 

Screen initialization failure

3-4-2

Screen-retrace test failure

3-4-3

Search for video ROM failure

4-2-1

No timer tick

4-2-2

Shutdown failure

4-2-3

Gate A20 failure

4-2-4

Unexpected interrupt in protected mode

Ensure that all expansion cards are properly seated, and then reboot the system. See
"

Expansion Cards

."

4-3-1

Improperly seated or faulty memory modules

Remove and reseat the memory modules. See "

Memory

." If the problem persists, replace the

memory modules. If the problem persists, replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

4-3-3

Defective system board

Replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

4-3-4

Time-of-day clock stopped

Replace the battery. See "

System Battery

." If the problem persists, replace the system board.

See "

System Board

."

4-4-1

Super I/O chip failure (defective system board)

Replace the system board. See "

System Board

."

4-4-3

Microprocessor frequency mismatch. Occurs
when the front-side (external) bus speed of a
microprocessor is not supported.

If video is available, a screen message identifies the faulty microprocessor. Replace the
microprocessor with a supported microprocessor. See "

Microprocessors

." If video is not

available, replace microprocessor 1 and then, if the problem persists, replace microprocessor 2.

4-4-4

Cache test failure (defective microprocessor)

Remove and reseat the microprocessor(s). See "

Microprocessors

." If the problem persists,

replace the microprocessor(s). If the problem persists, replace the system board. See "

System

Board

."
