Error Messages
Your computer's built-in memory (ROM) contains a series of
diagnostic programs, called power-on diagnostics, which your
computer runs automatically every time you turn it on. These
programs check internal devices such as ROM, RAM, the timer,
the keyboard controller, and the hard disk drive.
When the diagnostics test RAM, you see the total amount of
memory currently installed in your system. If the computer finds
an error, it displays an error message on the screen.
Write down
the error message and give it to the person who is helping you
when you report the problem.
If the error is serious, the computer cancels further checking and
halts system initialization. The error message remains on the
screen and the computer locks up. If this happens, contact your
Authorized EPSON Servicer as soon as possible to report this
information and the error message.
