Errors may occur during the POST (Power-On Self Test) routines which are performed
each time the system is powered on.
Non-fatal errors are those which, in most cases, allow the system to continue the bootup
process. The error message normally appears on the screen. See BIOS Error Messages
later in this section for descriptions of these messages.
Fatal errors are those which will not allow the system to continue the bootup procedure.
These fatal errors are usually communicated through a series of audible beeps. Each
error message has its own specific beep code, defined by the number of beeps following
the error detection. The following table lists the errors which are communicated audibly.
