9.1BIOS Error Messages

	The following table lists the error messages.
Table 89.	BIOS Error Messages
	Error Message	Explanation of Error Message
	Timer Error	This timer is based on 8254 resides in ICH-3. Error message indicates an error while
		programming the count register of the timer. This may indicate a problem with the timer in
		ICH-3
	CMOS Battery	BIOS will report this error message when status bit (RTC_REGD.Bit7) in ICH3 is low. This
	Low	bit is hardwired to RTC power, so it will be low when the voltage in SuperCAP is low.
	CMOS Settings	BIOS will load default value after it detects CMOS corruption. Error message is triggered if
	Wrong	BIOS fails to load the default value to CMOS.
	CMOS	CMOS contents failed the checksum check. Error message indicates that the CMOS data
	Checksum Bad	has been changed by a program other than the BIOS or the CMOS is not retaining it's data
		due to hardware malfunction
	RAM R/W test	Error message indicates BIOS fail to read/write to memory content during RAM R/W test.
	failed	RAM R/W test is executed during POST.
	CMOS Date/	Error message indicates BIOS has detected an invalid value in date & time register. (e.g.:
	Time Not Set	Invalid date = 50h or invalid month = 13h.
	Clear CMOS	Error message indicates that Jumper J16-3 to 5 is set
	Jumper
	installed
	Clear Password	Error message indicates that Jumper J16-1 to 3 is set
	Jumper
	installed
	MFG Jumper	Error message indicates that Jumper J16-9 to 10 is set. (Jumper is used only in
	installed	manufacturing test)
	BMC is in	Error message indicates that Jumper J16-2 to 4 is set.
	Update Mode
	BMC does not	Error message appears when BIOS issue an IPMI command to IPMC, but IPMC is not
	respond to	responsive to the command and does not return successful completion code to BIOS.
	BIOS IPMI
	command
	System Event	Error message indicates the System Event Log storage is full.
	Log is Full
	Refresh timer	This timer is a counter based on 82C54 which provides memory refresh request signal
	test failed	periodically. Memory content need to be refreshed to compensate for the gradual leakage
		of charge from the capacitors which stores the data.
	KBC BAT Test	Error message indicates that Keyboard controller BAT test has failed.
	failed
Note: If user enabled "Wait for F1 Error" under BIOS setup screen and any of the above error message
	was observed, the BIOS will wait for user input before proceeding with the boot up except:
	1. CMOS Checksum BAD
