List of Error Codes

The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a problem with a device, such as the way it has been configured. Following the list are explanations of the messages and remedies for reported problems.

If your system displays any of the below error messages other that the ones marked with an asterisk (*), write down the message and contact your technical support office. ( page 33) If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and install Setup defaults or correct the error.

0200 Failure Fixed Disk

Fixed disk in not working or not configured properly. Check to see if fixed disk is attached properly. Run Setup. Find out if the fixed-disk type is correctly identified.

0211 Keyboard error

Keyboard not working.

0212 Keyboard Controller Failed

Keyboard controller failed test. May require replacing keyboard controller.

0213 Keyboard locked - Unlock key switch Unlock the system to proceed.

0230 System RAM Failed at offset : nnnn

System RAM failed at offset nnnn of in the 64k block at which the error was detected.

0231 Shadow RAM Failed at offset : nnnn

Shadow RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64k block at which the error was detected.

0232 Extended RAM Failed at offset : nnnn Extended RAM Failed at address line : nnnn

Extended memory not working or not configured properly at offset or address line nnnn.

0250 System battery is dead - Replace and run SETUP

The CMOS clock battery indicator shows the battery is dead. Replace the battery and run Setup to reconfigure the system.

*0251 System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used

System CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data stored in CMOS. The BIOS installed Default SETUP Values. If you do not want these values, enter Setup and enter your own values. If the error persists, check the system battery or contact your technical support office.

0260 System timer error

The timer test failed. Requires repair of system board.

0270 Real time clock error

Real-time clock fails BIOS test. May require board repair.

0271 Check date and time settings

Real-time clock is illegal. Run Setup and set the date and clock.

*0280 Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used

Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads default values and offers to run Setup. If the failure was caused by incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail. 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.

02D0 System cache error - Cache disabled Contact your technical support office.

Failing Bits : nnnn

The hex number nnnn is a map of the bits at the RAM address which failed the memory test. Each 1 (one) in the map indicates a failed bit. See error 230,231 or 232 for offset address of the failure in System, Extended or Shadow memory.

Operating System not found

Operating system cannot be located on either drive A: or drive C:. Enter Setup and see if fixed disk and drive A: are properly identified.

Press <F1> to resume, <F2> to Setup

Displayed after any recoverable error message. Press <F1> to start the boot process or <F2> to enter a Setup and change the settings. Write down and follow the information shown on the screen.
