BIOS diagnostic codes and error messages
During the Power-On Self Test (POST), which is performed
during boot-up, system errors might be detected. Errors can be
fatal or non-fatal.
Fatal errors Fatal errors cause the unit to hang during boot-up. A fatal error
is communicated through a series of beeps and diagnostic LED
flashes. The number of beeps and LED flashes define the type
of error.
Non-fatal errors Non-fatal errors do not cause the unit to hang during boot-up.
A brief message describing the error will be displayed during
the boot-up process. Depending on the setting for the F1 Error
Wait field (in the Basic CMOS Configuration subscreen), you
will then be prompted to press F1 in order to resume the boot-up
process, or the boot-up process will automatically continue.
Diagnostic LED flashes/beep codes
The following errors, if detected during the POST, will be
communicated through a series of diagnostic LED
flashes
/beeps. All errors, except #8, are fatal. Note that the
beeps will only be audible if a stereo audio device has been
connected to the 1/8” mini audio input/output jack. This jack is
designed for line input/output operations and will not support
speakers or microphones.
