help with error

New Messagehelp with error (modified 0 times) binker1

I just booted up what I thought was a fresh web player, but have the following error. The system goes directly to dialing mode and then errors with "Your web player did not detect a dial tone. The phone line connection between your webplayer and the outside phone line may be causing the problem. Check the TEL> LINE jack on your Webplayer is connected to a working telephone wall jack."


Please help so I can get the screen so I can crack bios.

Regards,

This is what it should do, but doesn't it take some time to get this message.
Way before that you have to start hitting F2, which is the second button on the right of 'esc'.
This will take you to the BIOS setup.

me again, I held down the f2 and the contol key and got into the passwordscreen. then started with the xxxx minus 2400,2401,2402, etc.... After a while it appeared to work and the system just froze with a window that only says password in the header ontop of another window which is blank...

Please help I'm desperate, I'm going on a business trip in two days and would love to have this operational before

The "Second Button" is not the music key. It is the "Book"
See if that helps.

Thank you for your experience. My bad book was the actual f2 not the music f1, all looks good look forward to installing my toshiba mk4309 drive in once I figure how to make it a slave.

To make it a slave put a jumper on the two pins closest to the cable connector (vertically). No jumper? No problem, just use a small piece of wire and wrap it around the pins ... be careful that the wire does not touch anything else.
