Check to see if fixed disk is attached properly. Run Setup. Find out if thefixed-disk type is correctly identified.0210 Stuck keyStuck key on keyboard.0211 Keyboard errorKeyboard not working.0212 Keyboard Controller FailedKeyboard controller failed test. May require replacing keyboard controller.0213 Keyboard locked - Unlock key switchUnlock the system to proceed.0230 System RAM Failed at offset : nnnnSystem RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64k block at which the error was detected.0231 Shadow RAM Failed at offset : nnnnShadow RAM failed at offset nnnn of the 64k block at which the error was detected.0232 Extended RAM Failed at offset : nnnnExtended memory not working or not configured properly at offset nnnn.0250 System battery is dead - Replace and run SETUPThe 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 usedSystem CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data stored inCMOS. The BIOS installed Default SETUP Values. If you do not want these values, enter Setup and enter your own values.
