IBM PC - Corrupt CMOS, password not valid errors
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
IBM PC 300 and 700 Series systems may display a "CMOS Corrupted - Password Not Valid" error after the system has completed POST and the Power-on Password is entered.
The failure occurs as a result of installing an ISA Legacy adapter (not Plug 'n Play) that uses I/O address "XX70" or "XX71" (where XX is equal to or greater than 04).
Problem Isolation Guidance:
Affected machine types are: 6571, 6576, 6877, 6573, 6586, 6887, 6581, 6598, 6583
Fix:
Configure the ISA adapter to use an I/O address other than "XX70" or "XX71."
