Table 67: SMBIOS BIOS Error Messages
Message Displayed Description
Not enough space in Runtime area!!. SMBIOS data will
not be available.
This message is displayed when the size of the SMBIOS
data exceeds the available SMBIOS runtime storage
size.
6.4.2 POST Error Codes
During POST after the video has been initialized, the BIOS outputs the current boot progress
codes on the video screen. Progress codes are 32-bit quantities plus optional data. The 32- bit
numbers include class, subclass, and operation information. Class and subclass point to the
type of the hardware that is being initialized. Operation represents the specific initialization
activity.
Based on the data bit availability to display the progress code, a progress code can be
customized to fit the data width. The higher the data bit, higher the granularity of allowable
information. Progress codes may be reported by system BIOS or option ROMs.
The response section in the following table is divided into three types:
• Warning: The message is displayed on screen and the error is logged to the SEL. The
system will continue booting with a degraded state.
• Pause: The message is displayed on the screen and the boot process is paused until the
appropriate input is given to either continue the boot process or take corrective action.
• Halt: The message is displayed on the screen, an error is logged to the SEL, and the
system cannot boot unless the error is corrected.
The error codes are defined by Intel and whenever possible are backward compatible with error
codes used on earlier platforms.
All POST error codes are logged in the System Event Log.
