I have an IBM Thinkpad 385ED running Windows 98. It was working perfectly for my
Mom. When she died a year ago, I unplugged it. I just tried starting it up a few
days ago. When I turn it on, I get the Post error messages 161 & 163 for date & time,
with the choice of either clicking "OK" or "Cancel". When I click "OK" and enter
the correct date and time and then press "OK", the system starts up again and gives
the same 2 error messages. If I click on "Cancel", the next screen shows the 2 error
codes with an arrow pointing to an open book and the system will go no further. Someone
suggested recharging the battery, then removing it, and reinstalling it. I tried
that & tried just starting up without the battery attached, but the same happens
as described above. Any suggestions?
