Numeric Error Codes
The following is a list of the message that the BIOS can
display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them
display information about a hardware device, e.g., the
amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a
problem with a device, such as the way it has been config-
ured. Following the list are explanations of the messages
and remedies for reported problems.
If the system fails after you make changes in the Setup
menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and install Setup
defaults or correct the error.
