4.1 Beep Codes
Fatal errors, which halt the boot process, are communicated through two kinds of
audible beeps.
•
Eight short beeps: It indicates that a
video error has occurred.
•
A single long beep repeatedly: It indicates that a DRAM error has
occurred.
The most common type of error is a memory error.
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.
