No keyboard or keyboard error...
my computer:
P 166 MMX (Intel)
G586IPC motherboard
One of my friends tilted a pinball game in DOS mode,
the game froze, and when i restarted the puter,
I got the headline message...
Next day I bought a new keyboard and rebooted,
with the same err message.*~!*
History: my realTimeClock
(solded RTC/NVRAM chip)
has been showing wrong time (late)
during the last two weeks, three minutes one day
and 38 mins two days later,
and before I had time to replace it, this happened.
Q: Can there be any other reasons for the RTC
to show wrong time, than that the battery is out?
Can these two errors have anything to do with
each other?

The errors couldn't be related. And did you check the old keyboard in another computer, I do not think that it has gone bad. Likely to be just some BIOS error.

yes maybe, but I can´t access BIOS now,
after rebooting it checks the memory
and halts, so...
