Title: "Cont. CIOSYS, Critical Errors Halting" message, AT comes up in Basic

A customer called in Thursday with an AT that was running and
came up with a "Continuous CIOSYS, Critical Errors Halting" error
message.  And then it just locked up.  Upon rebooting it came up
in Basic.

Turns out the batteries were dead, and replacing them brought the
AT back up.  Seems as though the CMOS RAM that keeps all the
configuration information is powered by batteries even when the
AT is powered up.  When the batteries get weak the AT gets
amnesia.  01/30/87
