Previous boot incomplete - Default
configuration used
Previous POST did not complete successfully.

If the failure was caused by incorrect values and
they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail.
On systems with control of wait states, 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.
Memory Size found by POST differed
from CMOS
Memory size found by POST differed from
CMOS.
