Error Message
Explanation
PROCESSOR_THERMAL_TRIP_ERROR
Processor was previously shutdown due to a thermal event
(overheating).
MULTI_BIT_ECC_ERROR
The firmware has detected that a Multi-Bit ECC Error occurred.
SINGLE_BIT_ECC_ERROR
The firmware has detected that a Single-Bit ECC Error occurred.
CMOS_BATTERY_ERROR
The firmware has detected that a CMOS battery failure occurred.
CMOS_CHECKSUM_ERROR
The firmware has detected that a CMOS Checksum Error
occurred.
CMOS_TIMER_ERROR
The firmware has detected that the system date/time has not
been set.
MEMORY_SIZE_DECREASE_ERROR
The firmware has detected that the system memory has
decreased.
INTRUDER_DETECTION_ERROR
The system chassis was opened.
SPD_TOLER_ERROR
SERIAL PRESENCE DETECT (SPD) device data missing or
inconclusive.
Properly programmed SPD device data is required
for reliable operation.
DDR2-533 MHz memory assumed at
slowest timings.
