If power-on diagnostic tests detect an error but cannot display
an error message, the computer sounds an error tone code.
The tone code is a distinct pattern of beeps that identifies the
error, such as one beep-two beeps-one beep. If the error is
serious (fatal) the computer locks up, but if the error is not
serious (non-fatal) you can continue using your computer.
The tables below list the fatal and non-fatal error codes.
