POST Error Beep Codes
The following table lists the POST error beep codes. Prior to system video initialization, the BIOS uses these
beep codes to inform users on error conditions. The beep code is followed by a user-visible code on the
POST Progress LEDs.

POST Progress Code
Description
1
USB device action
N/A
Short beep sounded whenever USB device is discovered in
POST, or inserted or removed during runtime.
1 long
Intel® TXT security
violation
0xAE, 0xAF
System halted because Intel® Trusted Execution Technology
detected a potential violation of system security.
3
Memory error
Multiple
System halted because a fatal error related to the memory
was detected.
3 long and
1
CPU mismatch error
0xE5, 0xE6
System halted because a fatal error related to the CPU
family/core/cache mismatch was detected.
The following Beep Codes are sounded during BIOS Recovery.
2
Recovery started
N/A
Recovery boot has been initiated.
4
Recovery failed
N/A
Recovery has failed. This typically happens so quickly after
recovery is initiated that it sounds like a 2-4 beep code.
The In
tegrated BMC may generate beep codes upon detection of failure conditions. Beep codes are sounded
each time the problem is discovered, such as on each power-up attempt, but are not sounded continuously.
Codes that are common across all Intel server boards and systems that use same generation chipset are
listed in the following table. Each digit in the code is represented by a sequence of beeps whose count is
equal to the digit.

Code
Associated Sensors
Reason for Beep
1-5-2-1
No CPUs installed or first CPU socket is empty.
CPU1 socket is empty, or sockets are populated incorrectly
CPU1 must be populated before CPU2.
1-5-2-4
MSID Mismatch
MSID mismatch occurs if a processor is installed into a system
board that has incompatible power capabilities.
1-5-4-2
Power fault
DC power unexpectedly lost (power good dropout) – Power
unit sensors report power unit failure offset
1-5-4-4
Power control fault (power good assertion timeout).
Power good assertion timeout – Power unit sensors report soft
power control failure offset
1-5-1-2
VR Watchdog Timer sensor assertion
VR controller DC power on sequence was not completed in
time.
1-5-1-4
Power Supply Status
The system does not power on or unexpectedly powers off
and a Power Supply Unit (PSU) is present that is an
incompatible model with one or more other PSUs in the
system.
