Why did you change RAM?
The message "Checking NVRAM" is standard.
If the computer stopped working or something, please post exactly where it quit, and a bit about your hardware.

 

boot up propblem

I know it is standard,but it halted for more than 15 min.I changed the Ram because one technician on the Web told me to do so.I alo replaced the battery.This is my screen:
Check system health OK
Checking NVRAM..
CPU ID:068A American Mega Trends 0001
Intel Celeron(tm)800 MKHZ
Ami Bios(c)1999

GAVMM002-F

AND IT STOPPED.

hi, jerry

Have you checked the site of your motherboard for known bugs?
maybe it can be resolved with a bios update

when occured this problem and under wich kind of conditions?

greetz, mindbug

 

Looks like it's making it almost all the way through POST, but maybe hanging right at the end, or when initializing video or hard drives.
Have you been into the BIOS setup?
Are IDE devices all detected properly?

 

bootup problem

The problem occured when I start the computer.I can even get to the BIOS.It halted on : CHECKING NVRAM...No devices were detected.No Ram detected.How can I use a BIOS update if my computer does not work?

Dig through the motherboard manual, and reset the CMOS.
See if you can get past the error then.
