Startup Problems

The system displays an invalid configuration error message at power on when there are the following conditions:

!the current configuration information doesn't match configuration information stored in Setup, such as when an internal option is added.

!the system loses configuration information.

If either condition is true, the system displays an invalid configuration information message.

To continue start-up procedures, press F2 and run the Setup utility to set current system parameters.

If an error message appears before the operating system starts, look up the error message in the following table. Follow the instructions. If you see other error messages, the hardware might need repair.

If the system frequently loses the setup configuration data, the internal CMOS battery may need to be replaced at an authorized NEC repair center.
