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 wait-state configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next time the system is booted.

0281 Memory Size found by POST differed from EISA CMOS Memory size found by POST differed from EISA CMOS.
