BIOS Error POST (Beep) Codes

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

boot, errors may occur.

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

error messages normally appear on the screen.

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