I have a Win98 machine that displays the following error on boot:

"during the last boot up, your system hung for an improper cpu frequency
setting. your system is now working in safe mode. to optimize the system
performance and reliability, make sure the cpu internal frequncey conforms to
the specifications of your cpu.

cpu internal frequency 600mhz
cpu frequency multiple 4.5x

cpu level 2 cache ecc check disabled
processor serial number disabled
os/2 on board memory > 64m disabled"

The user is not smart enough to change the bios settings so I was wondering what could be the issue? Even so, the machine is a 600mhz computer.
