Chapter 5: System Resources
Note: if you experience problems with setting up your system, always check the following things in
the following order:
Memory, Video, CPU
By checking these items, you will most likely find out what the problem might have been when
setting up your system. For more information on troubleshooting, check the Tyan website at:

.
5.1 Beep Codes
Fatal errors, which halt the boot process are communicated through a series of audible beeps. For
example, if the BIOS POST can initialize the video but an error occurs, an error message will be
displayed. If it cannot display the message, it will report the error as a series of beeps.
If you hear one long beep followed by two short beeps, then a video problem has probably
occurred and the BIOS is having difficulty initializing the video display. Any other beep sequences
that may or may not occur are probably due to memory problems. If calling Tyan Tech Support, be
sure that you know how many beeps your board made, and how long the beeps were. Also have
other information such as your attached add-in cards, drives and OS to help speed up the support
process and come to a possible solution faster.
5.2 Flash Utility
Every BIOS file is unique for the motherboard it was designed for. For Flash Utilities, BIOS
downloads, and information on how to properly use the Flash Utility with your motherboard, you
must check the Tyan website:
http://www.tyan.com/
NOTE
Please be aware that by flashing your BIOS, you agree that in the event of a BIOS
flash failure, you must contact your dealer for a replacement BIOS. There are no
exceptions. Tyan does not have a policy of replacing BIOS chips directly with end
users. In no even will Tyan be held responsible for damage done to the BIOS by the
end user.
