--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. BIOS settings may cause 32-bit disk access to work  improperly. Many hard disk controllers don\'t use the  more sophisticated options available when a hard disk  is first installed. If your BIOS settings offer hard disk controller options such as \"PIO mode\" or \"Block  transfer,\" turn them on. PIO mode should be set to 3 or  higher. 
2. EBIOS.VXD mentioned as \"LoadFailed\" in BOOTLOG.TXT.  ? 

  Most likely everything is just fine. EBIOS.VXD is only used for the extended BIOS on IBM 
  PS/2 computers. Unless you have a PS/2 computer it is normal that EBIOS fails to load. 

3. IBM ThinkPad Models 750 (all 750 series except 750ce) 

  A new BIOS that solves several problems with power management is available from the IBM bulletin board. 
  Download the latest System Program Service Diskette for the ThinkPad 750 from the bulletin board service (BBS). 
  See your hardware documentation for information about accessing the IBM bulletin board. 

4. AMI BIOS Beep codes: 

Beep Codes 

The following beep codes would be heard at power on.  All of these errors are hardware 
related, so call you motherboard manufacturer or reseller for help in correcting the 
problem. 

  Beep Code  Meaning 

1  DRAM refresh failure 
2  Parity Circuit failure 
3  Base 64K RAM failure 
4  System Timer failure 
5  Processor failure 
6  Keyboard Controller Gate A20 error 
7  Virtual Mode Exception error 
8  Display Memory R/W Test failure 
9  ROM-BIOS Checksum failure 

All of these errors are codes reported by bios 

5. BIOS/CMOS Defined 

BIOS 

    Basic Input Output System. All computer hardware has to work with 
    software through an interface. The BIOS gives the computer a little 
    built-in starter kit to run the rest of softwares from floppy disks (FDD) 
    and hard disks (HDD). The BIOS is responsible for booting the computer 
    by providing a basic set of instructions. It performs all the tasks that need 
    to be done at start-up time: POST (Power-On Self Test, booting an 
    operating system from FDD or HDD). Furthermore, it provides an 
    interface to the underlying hardware for the operating system in the form 
    of a library of interrupt handlers. For instance, each time a key is pressed, 
    the CPU (Central Processing Unit) perform an interrupt to read that key. 
    This is similar for other input/output devices (Serial and parallel ports, 
    video cards, sound cards, hard disk controllers, etc...). Some older PC\'s 
    cannot co-operate with all the modern hardware because their BIOS 
    doesn\'t support that hardware. The operating system cannot call a BIOS 
    routine to use it; this problem can be solved by replacing your BIOS with 
    an newer one, that does support your new hardware, or by installing a 
    device driver for the hardware. 

CMOS 

    Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. To perform its tasks, 
    the BIOS need to know various parameters (hardware configuration). 
    These are permanently saved in a little piece (64 bytes) of CMOS RAM 
    (short: CMOS). The CMOS power is supplied by a little battery, so its 
    contents will not be lost after the PC is turned off. Therefore, there is a 
    battery and a small RAM memory on board, which never (should...) loses 
    its information. The memory was in earlier times a part of the clock chip, 
    now it\'s part of such a highly Integrated Circuit (IC). CMOS is the name 
    of a technology which needs very low power so the computer\'s battery is 
    not too much in use. 
    Actually, there is not a battery on new boards, but an accumulator 
    (Ni_Cad in most cases). It is recharged every time the computer is turned 
    on. If your CMOS is powered by external batteries, be sure that they are 
    in good operating condition. Also, be sure that they do not leak. That may 
    damage the motherboard. Otherwise, your CMOS may suddenly \"forget\" 
    its configuration and you may be looking for a problem elsewhere. In the 
    monolithic PC and PC/XT, this information is supplied by setting the DIP 
    (Dual-In-line Package) switches at the motherboard or peripheral cards. 
    Some new motherboards have a technology named the Dallas Nov-Ram. 
    It eliminates having an on-board battery: There is a 10 year lithium cell 
    epoxyed into the chip. 

6. Entering BIOS/CMOS

Ctrl Alt Ins= (Zenith, Phoenix) 
Ctrl S =(Phoenix). 
Ctrl Shift Esc= Tandon 386. 

lort...det var kun punkt 6 jeg ville have postet :(

Har du ellers overvejet at kikke på IBM\'s hjemme side? Der er nogle rimeligt fornuftige support sider.

Jeg har prøvet begge dele her. Uden held. Maskinen er en IBM 750, en lidt ældre sag, som jeg gerne vil lege med. Jeg har nu downloaded en manual til en lidt anden type maskine og vil kigge i den.  Når maskinen booter op kan man vælge at trykke F1 for systemcheck. Hvis jeg gør det, beder den om en startdiskette, jeg ikke har. Jeg ville egentlig gerne have en ekstra harddisk på den, og når jeg gør det, får jeg at vide, at der er systemfejl, så jeg håbede, at jeg kunne rode lidt med bios\'en og indstille den til at tage en harddisk mere, hvis muligt. Tak for jeres anstrengelser, men det har ikke hjulpet.

På en lille label foran på maskinen står der et model/type nummer. Dette nummer er på formen xxxx-yyy find lige det, så skal jeg finde ud af hvordan du kommer i BIOS.

Hej James,

Sorry det har taget lidt tid, jeg har lavet eksamensopgave. Her er nummeret:

6886 TV1  (6886 findes hos IBM, men ikke TV1)

Tak fordi du gider bruge tid på det, stig-b

jeg villel skyde på at du skal trykke på DELETE vis det ikke hjælper kan du bare prøve at tage en RAM plade ud for det plejer jeg nermlig at gøre ved min 486x33 MVH Sky-net

Hej sky-net, lav lige din kommentar om til et svar. Delete virkede ikke, men det gjorde ramklodsen. Puha! Tak skal du have. Endelig inde.  :)

det er det jeg er best til jeg har nermlig haft ca 4 små maskiner så jeg har ødelagt 3 af dem den siste køre stadig Kan du ikke sende en E-mail til mig min e-mail er dj-jackson@e-mail.dk
