4.10 Beep Codes
Fatal errors which halt the boot process are communicated through a series of audible
beeps.
(1) Memory module initialization failed
(a) memory modules might not be plugged in correct configuration
(b) wrong type of memory
(c) bad memory modules
(2) Graphics initialization failed
Before contacting your vendor or Tyan Technical Support, be sure that you note as much
as you can about the beep code length and order that you experience. Also, be ready with
information regarding add-in cards, drives and O/S to speed the support process and
come to a quicker solution.
4.20 Flash Utility
Every BIOS file is unique for the motherboard it was designed for. For Flash Utilities,
BIOS downloads, and information on how to properly use the Flash Utility with your
motherboard, please check the Tyan web site:

a BIOS flash failure, you must contact your dealer for a replacement
BIOS. There are no exceptions. Tyan does not have a policy for replacing
BIOS chips directly with end users. In no event will Tyan be held
