Beep Codes
During boot up, the computer performs a series of POST (Power On Self Test) routines. A
beep code may appear when an error is detected. There are fatal and nonfatal errors. The
fatal errors include BIOS, CMOS, DMA, RAM, video, and keyboard controller errors. The
nonfatal errors include timer tick interrupt, shutdown test, unexpected interrupt in protected
mode, gate A20, RAM test, interval timer channel 2 test, clock, serial and parallel port test,
math co-processor, system board select, and extended CMOS RAM.
The following table provides a description of the beep codes.

CMOS Battery Replacement
Remove the 3-volt lithium battery from the system board as follows.
1. Turn off and unplug the system unit and any external options connected to the
system.
CAUTION:
Removing the battery from the
system board causes the computer to lose system
configuration information. If possible, run Setup
and record the system configuration settings
before removing the battery. Use that
information to restore the system after replacing
the battery.
2. Remove the system access cover.
