Q. |
I just installed 16MB of memory in my 486. I turned on the computer and get a message: Invalid configuration/run setup. How do I fix this error? |
A. |
This is not an error. This is exactly what should happen when installing memory. Your system "sees" the new memory, but your BIOS does not. You must run the CMOS setup utility to allow the BIOS to 'write' the changes in extended memory to the CMOS setup. There are several ways to access your setup, but the normal method is to hit your F1 or F2 key when you first boot up. Some systems require Control+Alt+Esc, while others require the delete key to enter setup. Check your manual for the exact key strokes. |
