1.7 Error Messages
In the event that you receive an error message, do not continue using the computer. Note
the message and take corrective action immediately. This section describes the different
types of error messages and suggests corrective measures.
There are two general types of error messages:
Software
System

1.7.1 Software Error Messages

Software error messages are returned by your operating system or application. These
messages typically appear after you boot the operating system or when you run your
applications. If you receive this type of message, consult your application or operating
system manual for help.

1.7.2 System Error Messages

A system error message indicates a problem with the computer itself. These messages
normally appear during the power-on self-test, before the operating system prompt
appears. Table 1-1 lists the system error messages.
