Tyan s1854 DMI problem

[vandrews]

Hi, to you all

I have a Tyan S1854 Motherboard with a 700Mhz Celeron processor, 2x128 of
133 SDRAM. A Fujitsu MPG3102AT hard disk. The Bios of the M/B is 1.07. and
is set to default. When i boot up the machine, it goes throught the process of
detecting the hard drive etc, but then i get the Verifying DMI pool data ......

At this point it just stays the same and nothing more happens.

If anyone can help, it would be really appriciated, because i am building the
system to teach my brother how to read and write.

Regards
Vinnie

Can you get into the BIOS?
If so, look for parameter "Reset user configuration data = disable" (or "no") in an "Advanced BIOS settings".
Set it to "Enable" or "Yes" - it should solve the problem.
Make sure you have enabled BIOS updating (via hardware switch on MB or in BIOS). It sometimes called "BIOS flash protection" - make sure sure that protection is disabled (so BIOS can be updated)...
Sometimes CMOS resetting can help too.

If it didn't help, I would suspect BIOS chip is may have corrupted data or CMOS battery is low.

Good luck!

This btw can also be called 'NVRAM'.
