complete list of POST messages, see “POST error codes” on page 85.
Diagnostic programs and error messages
Note: When using diagnostics with a USB keyboard and mouse attached, you
must first enable USB emulation. Complete the following steps to enable
USB emulation:
1. Restart the computer and press F1 to start the Configuration/Setup
Utility.
2. Select Devices and I/O Ports.
3. Select USB Setup.
4. Make sure that the USB keyboard and mouse are enabled.
Diagnostic error messages indicate that there is a problem; they are not intended to
be used to identify a failing part. Troubleshooting and servicing complex problems
that are indicated by error messages must be performed by trained service
personnel.
Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the
computer displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested
action instructions for the first error message that appears.
