Troubleshooting and error codes
| Issue | Possible Solution |
|---|---|
| Cannot boot from hard disk | Ensure booting sequence in SETUP is set to A:, C:. Boot from a system diskette in drive A. |
| Forgetting password | Discharge CMOS memory by setting jumper JP28 to 1-2, power on briefly, power off, then set JP28 back to 2-3. Run SETUP to re-enter password. |
| Software installation issues (copy-protected) | Try installing at high speed. If it fails, try low speed (Ctrl+Alt+ - on numeric keypad), then switch to high speed if possible. For key disk copy protection, try loading at high speed first. |
| Installing a non-IDE hard disk drive | Use a 16-bit, AT-type hard disk controller. If using a controller card, disable the built-in IDE interface via SETUP. |
