ABIT AT8 32x Series Error 83

[jlandi]

Hello,
I have just hooked up my mother board and plugged it into the wall. When I tun on the machine it is giving me an error 83: Save all data in stack to CMOS. I was wondering if anyone could help. I check all the wiring and tried clearing the CMOS, no go. Any help would be appreciated.

My motherboard is an ABIT AT8 32X.

Do you have the owners manual for the motherboard?

Do you have the owners manual for the motherboard?

Yes I do. I looked in the manual and that was all I could find about the issue. What I did was unplug everything from the mobo and start it. Then I would shut down and plug one thing in at a time. The issue appears to be with a bad FP-1394-1 plug on the board. When I stopped using it, that error went away and allowed me to boot. It boots with a bad cmos error; however, it will still run. Thank you for the help.
