Summary:

Some IBM-compatible machines see a coprocessor without one being installed. If the Setup program does not have provisions for indicating a coprocessor, a number of options are available. The first is to pull the battery out of the machine and let the CMOS that holds the configuration drain fully (about an hour), then rerun Setup. If this procedure does not work, run the IBM Advanced Diagnostics and attempt to set the CMOS to the proper configuration.
