Hi Jason,
Thank you for posting in our on-line discussion group. The key to
resolving this issue is to get the system to boot to your Emergency
Unlock disk. I recommend to check you CMOS setting and make sure that
you check for these settings:
Floppy Seek at Boot: Enabled
Swap Floppy: Disabled
Boot Sequence: Floppy then Hard Drive or Floppy First
I listed below the knowledge base article that resolves the DMI Pool
error.
