Every time I turn on my HP Vectra QS/20, it tells me there's a
configuration error.  Checking it, there never is.  I know that
the manual says this is a sign that the battery pack needs 
replacing, but I bought it new 14 months ago, and the time/date
is still correct.  Any idea what else would cause this problem?
After the memory check, it prints a number, but I don't remember
what it is (09xx, don't know the x's).  I don't have the BIOS
book to look that error up.  Suggestions?  Thanks,

Mike
