Hi Raul,

From the system logs, looks the logs has been generated by the machine check. The alert level is ALERT LEVEL 2.

If the system cannot boot-up, you need to check whether the system can boot-up or not until BCH mode. If the system can boot up until BCH mode, you can get the PIM information.

But if the system up & running, you can ignore the messages. Or try to upgrade the firmware, below is the url for the latest firmware for A500 :

Hope this information can help.

Cheers,
