POST Diagnostic Front Panel LEDs and Audible Codes
This section covers the front panel LED codes as well as the audible codes that may occur before
or during POST that do not necessarily have an error code or text message associated with them.
Å WARNING: When the computer is plugged into an AC power source, voltage is always applied to the
system board. To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock and/or hot surfaces, be sure to
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet and allow the internal system components to cool before
touching.
Look for the LED between the DIMM sockets. If the LED is illuminated, the system still has power. Power off
the computer and remove the power cord before proceeding.
✎
If you see flashing LEDs on a PS/2 keyboard, look for flashing LEDs on the front panel of the
computer and refer to the following table to determine the front panel LED codes.
Recommended actions in the following table are listed in the order in which they should be
performed.
No all diagnostic lights and audible codes are available on all models.
