POST Codes

This section provides the AMI POST Codes

for the EVGA Z390 DARK Motherboard

during system boot up. The POST Codes are
displayed on the Debug LED readout located

directly on the motherboard. See Page 14 and

15, component 21 of the Component Legend

for physical location.
This Debug LED will switch to display the

user’s 80Port Configuration settings after POST (see Page 149). Please note

that if you see the Debug LED constantly switching numbers after entering

Windows, the Debug LED is showing temperature or voltage information, and
is NOT reporting errors.

AMI POST Codes
