Hi,

Can anyone explain the following, and how to resolve it.

I have an old Multia desktop running Tru64 UNIX. I decided to load the ARC
console out of curiosity and now the system will not boot at all.

It displays the following message.

Multi SRM Console BL5 V3.8-3, built on Aug 10 1995 03:22:55
***Warning: NVR/TOY battery is low. System may not boot***
Testing Memory from 8 to 40 meg...
Loading ARC firmware...

The system now just hangs at this point. I can't get the machine to do
anything else.
I know that the battery on the system is dead, but this hasn't proved a
problem before.

Any ideas

regards

Mark
