BIOS Error Beep Codes & Messages
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 boot-up process. The error messages normally appear on the screen.
Fatal errors are those which will not allow the system to continue the boot-up
procedure. If a fatal error occurs, you should consult with your system manu-
facturer for possible repairs.
These fatal errors are usually communicated through a series of audible
beeps. The numbers on the fatal error list, on the following page, correspond
to the number of beeps for the corresponding error. All errors listed, with the
exception of #8, are fatal errors.
