                    BRAVO LC2 KEYBOARD LED'S DO NOT FLASH


PROBLEM:       When the "SERVER" password mode is enable in CMOS setup, the
               keyboard LED's don't flash as stated in the User's Manual
               (part number 001796-001).  The manual states that the Num
               Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock lights flash upon booting the
               system, before the password is entered.

CAUSE:         The keyboard controller used in this system cannot be
               programmed to control the keyboard LED's.

AFFECTED
SYSTEMS:       All models of Bravo LC2 systems.

SOLUTION:      This situation is a function of system design and there is no
               method of making the LED's flash with a password set.
