Ibm Thinkpad 600 Error 00192
for further replies. bahjan Registered Member Joined: May 18, 2007 Posts: 63 Location: U.K. I have a thinkpad 600e laptop and a few days ago on booting ibm thinkpad error codes up I got an unexpected 192 error, two bleeps and booted into IBM ibm thinkpad 600e cmos battery replacement Test screen. Gives options to test or reboot. If you press test, there are the following errors on the systemboard: thinkpad 600 cmos battery DEV 001 ERR 91 Fru 3610 Which is basically IBM speak for 'What the??' Don't panic and think it has to be the systemboard. It's probably the cmos battery needing replaced. This is a backup battery which keeps the system clock in time. Yes, an out of time clock on your desktop can mean you have a virus, so it's worth doing a through scan, but in most cases it's a dying cmos battery. They should be 3 volts, so if you test your existing battery with a volt meter and it's low, better get a new one. New batteries are very cheap and in fact if you have the ability any lithium battery CR2025 should work in a 600e - a guide to how to fit these are on the web, but there's a good discussion of www.stonetable.org. If you can on boot up press F1 which should take you to the bios screen to check/adjust the internal date/clock, but it probably won't work with the 192 error, but once you've fitted a new battery do this and make sure the time/date is correct. Nevertheless, as my battery was not totally dead, I could force the IBM to boot into windows from the IBM Test screen by pressing 'reboot' and then pressing F1. Don't know why, but the laptop would then go into scan disk mode, perform a scan then boot up. I have to adjust the clock time, but once booted, the system works fine, with no errors. Odd, but okay while I'm waiting for a new battery to arrive. bahjan, Oct 15, 2008 #1 (You must log in or sign up to reply here.) Show Ignored Content Loading...

Guest the ibm thinkpad 600e that i am working with, on boot i get the three errors 00161, 00192, 00163. i replaced the cmos battery and it made no difference. i have tried getting into the bios by holding F1 before and throughout powerup to no avail. when it finally loads up to something, it is the classic ERROR screen with the three errors listed and the arrow pointing to the manual. i can click on ok or cancel and they both do the same thing, basically the ok and cancel button disappear and then i can do nothing but restart http://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/tip-ibm-thinkpad-192-error-2-bleep-test-screen.222763/ the computer with the power switch which then just starts the process over. any help would be greatly appreciated , Dec 13, 2004 #1 Advertisements Bruce Markowitz Guest First of all it is likely a 600, NOT an e, the e does not generally give the 192 (fan) error Are you sure, CERTAIN, ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE you put in a new, good CMOS battery. Try another, this is the classic CMOS battery errors.

Buy a new battery and try. Many people have had the same problem with a "good" used battery. Those errors indicate a bad CMOS battery. The only option past that is a new system board, On 14 Dec 2004 10:22:02 -0800, wrote: >yes, it is a 600e not a 600, and yes i am positive the battery is good, >i did a voltage and current test before installing it > Bruce Markowitz, Dec 14, 2004 #4 Advertisements Show Ignored Content Want to reply to this

FRU 3610: 36 = ibm thinkpad 600 System board & 10 = Battery. It looks like you've got a problem with either the processor fan, system board, or battery. Try removing the battery and running the system. If you still get the same error, you likely have a bad CPU fan or system board. Before giving up on the machine, try reinitializing the BIOS, and if that doesn't work, try updating the BIOS if you can. (You won't be able to update the BIOS if the system doesn't hae a working battery, though.) Sometimes a poorly seated component can cause similar errors, too. So if you're pretty decent with a screwdriver, feel free to dive in and reseat your components. HERE is a copy of the hardware manual for your ThinkPad that you can refer to for deciphering error codes and assembly/disassembly instructions and diagrams.

A bit of unrecommended soldering and electrical tape did the job, and the laptop was up and running again. Battery fix only cost $1.39. Laptop symptom: Whenever I powered on, the clock was reset.
