that does not agree with the parameter settings stored in
BIOS memory, or there is a failure in the system, the
system beeps and/or displays an error message after the
Power On Self Test (POST). If the failure is not too
severe, it will give you the opportunity to modify the
settings of the setup utility, as described in the following
steps:

tion of your system Use’s Guide. The
Troubleshooting Section includes a list of
error messages and their meanings.
