POST Error Codes and Messages
Whenever a recoverable error occurs during POST, BIOS displays a message on the
video display screen and codes (hexadecimal values) in the LCD display to indicate
both status and error conditions and causes the speaker to beep as the message appears.
BIOS also issues a beep code (one long tone followed by two short tones) during POST
if the video configuration fails or if an external ROM module does not a checksum of
zero. The BIOS indicates errors by writing an error code to the standard logging area in
the Extended BIOS Data Area, and by displaying a message on the screen, which is
sometimes preceded by the POST Error Code. The error code is also logged to the
Event Logging area.
Recommended actions are specified for each error condition and some will prompt you
to remove and replace CRUs. Refer to Chapter 4 "Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs)"
and "System Components and Module Set" for the CRUs associated with the error
codes displayed.
Table 5-3 POST Error Codes and Messages is a list of the error codes and messages
written at the start of each POST test. Table 5-4 POST Error Beep Codes is a list of
beep codes issued for each POST test.
