Appendix A

BIOS Error Beep Codes

During the POST (Power-On Self-Test) routines, which are performed at each

system boot, errors may occur.

Non-fatal errors are those which, in most cases, allow the system to continue to

boot. The error messages normally appear on the screen.

Fatal errors will not allow the system to continue with bootup procedure. If a

fatal error occurs, you should consult with your system manufacturer for possible

repairs.

These fatal errors are usually communicated through a series of audible beeps.

The numbers on the fatal error list correspond to the number of beeps for the

corresponding error.
