I downloaded Award BIOS Editor and patched out the message. 😁
Personally I think you did wrong... It actually has a meaning and you just "swept the problem under the carpet" for aesthetic reasons. But whatever...
For the record:
This message means Award PnP core can't update the ESCD data in EEPROM, necessary for ISAPnP operations. Award, some AMI and Phoenix BIOSes store the ESCD data in EEPROM, instead NVRAM. Depending in the board and the BIOS program, this can mean bad news when using ISAPnP cards along PCI ones. Some boards regenerate the data in RAM when they can't retrieve it from EEPROM, so the only issue is slower boot times, and Windows/ICU utilities unable to save resource relocation for ISAPnP cards across cold power cycles (It needs to be reconfigured in each reboot).
