Verifying DMI Pool...

[Icebergoner]

I just recently put together another computer, an everything is working ok except when it boots up, I get a screen that says "Verifying DMI Pool Table..." I believe... and the system just hangs.

I believe it might be a hardware problem? Anyways, I changed CMOS battery to a new one, cleared the CMOS, and a few other things that didn't work. Anyone have any ideas? The motherboard is an old Spacewalker Mainboard Shuttle AV11.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I got it too work, I have no idea how though. I've seen this problems tons before and never really have came across a solution, a real one anyways. After I put in the new battery, I reinstalled slackware again, made some minor adjustments here an there, it worked. : shrug :
