Troubleshooting Action
Reseat the memory, or replace with known good modules.
Fatal error indicating a serious problem with the system.
Consult your system manufacturer. Before declaring the
motherboard beyond all hope, eliminate the possibility of
interference by a malfunctioning add-in card. Remove all
expansion cards except the video adapter.
If beep codes are generated when all other expansion
cards are absent, consult your system manufacturer's
technical support.
If beep codes are not generated when all other expansion
cards are absent, one of the add-in cards is causing the
malfunction. Insert the cards back into the system one at a
time until the problem happens again. This will reveal the
malfunctioning card.
If the system video adapter is an add-in card, replace or
reseat the
video adapter. If the video adapter is an integrated part of the
system board, the board may be faulty.
