L i f e B o o k A 6 0 0 0 S e r i e s N o t e b o o k - S e c t i o n F i v e

*Parity Check 2 nnnn

Parity error found in the I/O bus. BIOS attempts to locate the address and display it on the screen. If it cannot locate the address, it displays ????. This is a potentially data-destroying failure. Contact your support representative.

*Press <F1> to resume, <F2> to SETUP

Displayed after any recoverable error message. Press the [F1] key to continue the boot process or the [F2] key to enter Setup and change any settings.

*Previous boot incomplete – Default configuration used

Previous Power On Self Test did not complete success- fully. The Power On Self Test will load default values and offer to run Setup. If the previous failure was caused by incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail also. If using the default settings does not allow you to complete a successful boot sequence, you should turn off the power and contact your support representative.

*Real time clock error

Real-time clock fails BIOS test. May require board repair. Contact your support representative.

*Shadow RAM Failed at offset: nnnn

Shadow RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64k block at which the error was detected. You are risking data corrup- tion if you continue. Contact your support representative.

nnnn Shadow RAM Passed

Where nnnn is the amount of shadow RAM in kilobytes successfully tested.

*System battery is dead – Replace and run SETUP

The BIOS CMOS RAM memory hold up battery is dead. This is part of your BIOS and is a board mounted battery which requires a support representative to change. You can continue operating but you will have to use setup utility default values or reconfigure your setup utility every time you turn off your notebook. This battery has an expected life of 2 to 3 years.

System BIOS shadowed

System BIOS copied to shadow RAM.

*System CMOS checksum bad – run SETUP

BIOS CMOS RAM has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data stored in BIOS memory. Run Setup and reconfigure the system.

*System RAM Failed at offset: nnnn

System memory failed at offset nnnn of in the 64k block at which the error was detected. This means that there is a fault in your built-in memory. If you continue to operate, you risk corrupting your data. Contact your support representative for repairs.

nnnn System RAM Passed

Where nnnn is the amount of system memory in kilobytes successfully tested.

*System timer error

The timer test failed. The main clock that operates the computer is faulty. Requires repair of system board. Contact your support representative for repairs.

UMB upper limit segment address: nnnn

Displays the address of the upper limit of Upper Memory Blocks, indicating released segments of the BIOS memory which may be reclaimed by a virtual memory manager.

Video BIOS shadowed

Video BIOS successfully copied to shadow RAM.

EMERGENCY MEDIA PLAYER

DRIVE TRAY RELEASE

If for some reason the eject button fails, you can open the DVD/CD-ROM tray with a paper clip or similar tool inserted into the eject hole in the far right side of the front of the tray. Straighten one side of a paper clip and push it gently into the hole. The tray will pop out a short distance.

The operating system and application software that is factory installed detects the modem characteristics and provides the necessary command strings to operate the modem. The internal modem operation is controlled by generic AT commands from the operating system and application software. The standard long form result codes may, in some cases, be displayed on your screen to keep you informed of the actions of your modem. The operating system and application software may suppress display of the result codes.

Examples of result codes are:

■OK

■NO CARRIER

■NO DIALTONE

■CONNECT 53000 (Connection complete at 53,000 bps.)

■ERROR

■FAX

■RING (This means an incoming call.)

■BUSY

■NO ANSWER

When using the internal modem with applications that are not factory installed refer to the application documentation.

A6020 specifications

The Fujitsu Siemens Computers A6020 is a desktop PC that exemplifies the combination of power and efficiency, catering primarily to small businesses and home office users.
