POST and Boot Messages
The POST displays messages to alert to errors in hardware, software, and firmware or to provide operating
information about the computer.
Each time the POST displays a message on the screen, the computer's speaker beeps twice. If an error
occurs before the monitor is initialized, specific beep codes sound to alert to a problem. The table below
lists a general grouping of system messages arranged by the POST countdown number. In addition, each
message is accompanied by text describing the message and in most cases, a recommended solution to the
problem.
NOTE
Italics indicate variable parts of a message such as memory addresses, hexadecimal
values, and so on. These messages can differ at each occurrence.
