System Utilities
CMOS Setup Utility
CMOS setup is a hardware configuration program built into the system ROM, called the complementary metaloxide semiconductor (CMOS) Setup Utility. Since most systems are already properly configured and
optimized, there is no need to run this utility. You will need to run this utility under the following conditions.

When changing the system configuration settings

When redefining the communication ports to prevent any conflicts

When modifying the power management configuration

When changing the password or making other changes to the security setup

When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are prompted ("Run Setup"
message) to make changes to the CMOS setup
NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad. In this case, the system
cannot retain configuration values in CMOS. Ask a qualified technician for assistance.

CMOS setup loads the configuration values in a battery-backed nonvolatile memory called CMOS RAM. This
memory area is not part of the system RAM which allows configuration data to be retained when power is
turned off.
Before you run the CMOS Setup Utility, make sure that you have saved all open files. The system reboots
immediately after you close the Setup.
NOTE: CMOS Setup Utility will be simply referred to as BIOS, "Setup", or "Setup utility" in this guide.
The screenshots used in this guide display default system values. These values may not be the same
those found in your system.

System Troubleshooting
This chapter provides instructions on how to troubleshoot system hardware problems.

Hardware Diagnostic Procedure

IMPORTANT:The diagnostic tests described in this chapter are only intended to test Acer products. Non-Acer
products, prototype cards, or modified options can give false errors and invalid system
responses.
1.

Obtain the failing symptoms in as much detail as possible.

2.

Verify the symptoms by attempting to recreate the failure by running the diagnostic tests or repeating
thesame operation.

3.

Refer to Power System check on page 49 and Beep Codes on page 50 to determine which corrective
action to perform.

Chapter 4

48

System Check Procedures

Power System Check
If the system will power on, skip this section. Refer to System External Inspection.
If the system will not power on, do the following:

Check if the power cable is properly connected to the system and AC source.

Check if the voltage selector switchis set to the correct voltage setting.

System External Inspection

1.

Inspect the LED indicators on the front panel, which can indicate the malfunction.

2.

Make sure that air flow is not blocked.

3.

Make sure nothing in the system is making contact that could short out power.

4.

If the problem is not evident, continue with System Internal Inspection.

System Internal Inspection

1.

Turn off the system and all the peripherals connected to it.

2.

Unplug the power cord from the power outlets.

3.

Unplug the power cord from the system.

4.

Unplug all peripheral cables from the system.

5.

Place the system unit on a flat, stable surface.

6.

12. If the problem with the system is not evident, you can try viewing the POST messages and BIOS event
logs during the system startup.

49

Chapter 4

Beep Codes
Beep codes are used by the BIOS to indicate a serious or fatal error to the end user. Beep codes are used
when an error occurs before the system video has been initialized. Beep codes will be generated by the
system board speaker, commonly referred to as the PC speaker.
AMIBIOS displays the checkpoints in the bottom right corner of the screen during POST. This display method
is limited, since it only displays checkpoints that occur after the video card has been activated.
Not all computers using AMIBIOS enable this feature. In most cases, a checkpoint card is the best tool for
viewing AMIBIOS checkpoints.
Beep Symptom

Cause and Description

One short beep

System is ready.
System is OK.

Continuous one long beep

Memory not installed or memory error.

One long beep and two short beeps then

repeat.

VGA not installed or VGA error.

Graphics card error/not installed, graphics card memory
error or graphics card BIOS checksum error.

One long beep then two short beep

BIOS damaged.
BIOS is damaged, BIOS POST jumps to Boot Block to
execute the default procedures.

Two short beeps

CMOS damaged.
CMOS checksum error or CMOS battery loss occurs.

Chapter 4

50

Checkpoints
A checkpoint is either a byte or word value output to I/O port 80h.The BIOS outputs checkpoints throughout
bootblock and Power-On Self Test (POST) to indicate the task the system is currently executing. Checkpoint
sare very useful in aiding software developers or technicians in debugging problems that occur during the preboot process.

Viewing BIOS checkpoints

Viewing all checkpoints generated by the BIOS requires acheckpoint card, also referred to as a POST card or
POST diagnostic card. These are ISA or PCI add-in cards that show the value of I/O port 80h on a LED
display. Checkpoints may appear on the bottom right corner of the screen during POST. This display method
islimited, since it only displays checkpoints thatoccur after the video card has been activated.

Bootblock Initialization Code Checkpoints

The Bootblock initialization code sets up the chipset,memory, and other components before system memory is
available. The following table describes the type of checkpoints that may occur during the bootblock
initialization portion of the BIOS.
NOTE: Please note that checkpoints may differ between different platforms based on system
configuration.Checkpoints may change due to vendor requirements,system chipset or option ROMs
from add-in PCI devices.
Checkpoint

Description

Before D1

Early chipset initialization is done. Early super I/O initialization is done includingRTC and
keyboard controller. NMI is disabled.

Chapter 4

Bootblock Recovery Code Checkpoints

The Bootblock recovery code gets control when the BIOS determines that a BIOS recovery needs to occur
because the user has forced the update or the BIOS checksum is corrupt. The following table describes the
type of checkpoints that may occur during the Bootblock recovery portion of the BIOS.
NOTE: Checkpoints may differ between different platforms based on system configuration. Checkpoints
maychange due to vendor requirements, system chipset or option ROMs from add-in PCI devices.
