A.1 BIOS Error POST (Beep) Codes
During the POST (Power-On Self-Test) routines, which are performed each time the system
is powered on, errors may occur.
Non-fatal errors are those which, in most cases, allow the system to continue the bootup
process. The error messages normally appear on the screen.
Fatal errors are those which will not allow the system to continue the bootup procedure. If
a fatal error occurs, you should consult with your system manufacturer for possible repairs.
The fatal errors are usually communicated through repeated patterns of audible beeps. Each
pattern of audible beeps listed below corresponds to its respective error.
