POST Beep

error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any
additional information. This beep code consists of a single long beep followed by three
short beeps. The other one code indicates that your DRAM error has occurred. This beep
code consists of a single long beep repeatedly.

One or more of the following messages may be displayed if the BIOS detects an error
during the POST. This list indicates the error messages for all Award BIOSes:
