Blinking lights
Symptoms

caps
lock
/
num lock
keys
Possible causes
Blinking lights on startup usually indicate a problem with basic functionality of a critical
component (processor, BIOS, graphics cards, memory, etc.) due to loose connection,
defective parts, or recently added parts.
Troubleshooting steps
1.
Check for any blink patterns. Count the number of blinks in a sequence, followed by a
pause for a few seconds.
2.
See Status, Blinking Lights, and Error Message (
7. Status lights, blinking light codes,
troubleshooting lights, and POST error messages on page 92
) for corrective actions.
3.
If internal hardware components (memory, hard drive, etc.) have been recently added, a
component may not be connected properly. Remove and reseat new components (
Reseat cables and connections on page 96
) one at a time.
Note
Since the display may not be functional, lights are used to indicate an error.
