It’s displaying the Compaq logo during the power-on self-test, as well as the asset text “This is now Richie’s laptop”. It is also displaying a “162 - system options not set” error as a result of a dead CMOS retention battery, as well as the total memory counted during the memory test, saying “262,144 kilobytes okay”, or 256 megabytes of RAM.
