POST Messages POST Message 163 164 167 175 Description The clock is not working correctly. Action: Set the correct date and time. If the date and time are set correctly and saved, but the 163 error message reappears, replace the battery. (See "Replacing the Battery" on page 179.) If this does not correct the problem, have the system serviced. Until the system is serviced, the server can be used, but any application programs that use the date and time will be affected. A change in the memory configuration occurred. This message might appear after you add or remove memory, or incorrectly install memory. Note: The server can be used with decreased memory capacity until the error is corrected. Action: 1. If you added memory, see "Working with Memory Modules" on page 63 to verify that the new memory is correct for your server and that it is installed correctly. (If the memory is not installed correctly, reseat the memory modules.) 2. If you added or removed memory, you must save the new configuration in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Run the Configuration/Setup Utility program; then, exit, saving the new configuration settings. For information about using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility Program" on page 28. 3. Running the diagnostic tests might isolate the location of the problem memory module and provide additional information. (See "Running the Diagnostic Test Programs" on page 124 for information on running the diagnostic programs that come with your server.) If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the system serviced. An installed microprocessor is not supported by the current POST/BIOS. Action: 1. Obtain the latest POST/BIOS update diskette image. 2. Perform the POST/BIOS (flash) update procedure. A failure occurred during testing of the system board and microprocessor. Action: Have the system serviced. 132 Netfinity 3500 User's Handbook
