4 Troubleshooting Your PC and Using the Setup Program If Your PC Has a Software Problem If You Can't Start the Setup Program This may happen if the copy of the PC's configuration stored in memory is corrupted. You will need to erase this bad configuration. To clear the configuration: 1 Switch off the PC and remove the cover (refer to chapter 3). 2 Set the system board switch 1 (CONFG) on the switch block to ON to clear the configuration (refer to page 118 for the switch location). 3 Replace the cover and switch on the PC to erase the memory. 4 Check that error codes 0240 and 0130 are displayed, and wait until the PC has started. 5 Switch off the PC and remove the cover. 6 Set the system board switch 1 (CONFG) on the switch block to OFF to re-enable the configuration. 7 Replace the cover (refer to chapter 3). 8 Switch on the PC and run Setup by pressing when appears. (Error code 0130 will appear when the PC starts.) 9 Press to save the configuration and exit from Setup. If the Date and Time Are Incorrect The date and time can be incorrect because the time has changed for the seasons, or because the PC has been unplugged from the power too long, and the Gold Capacitor which supplies power to the CMOS memory has discharged. To recharge the Gold Capacitor, plug the PC into the power for one hour (there is no need to start the PC). You can install an external battery that will keep track of the date and time if the PC is unplugged for more than one week (the external battery connector is shown on page 118). Contact your HP dealer for complete information about installing an external battery. Use the Setup program to change the date and time. 86 English
