BIOS User’s Information
This section describes the various screen messages and
beep codes of the system BIOS. The BIOS indicates
errors by writing an error code to the PS/2-standard
logging area in the Extended BIOS Data Area, and by
displaying a message on the screen, which is sometimes
preceded by the POST Error Code. The error code will
also be logged to the Event Logging area.
Error and Status Messages
Table 6-2 is an alphabetic list of error and status
messages that BIOS generates and an explanation of
each message. Many of the messages refer to the built
in Setup program. For more information about Setup,
refer to the Configuring Your System chapter.
