POST Error Beep Codes

This section lists POST (Power On Self Test) error beep codes for the AMI BIOS.

This section lists  Beep Codes for recoverable POST errors.

Recoverable POST Error Beep Codes

When a recoverable type of error occurs during POST, BIOS will display a POST 
code that describes the problem. BIOS may also issue one of the following beep 
codes: 

1 long and two short beeps - video configuration error
