POST Error Beep Codes
The following table lists the POST error beep codes. Prior to system video initialization, the
BIOS uses these beep codes to inform users on error conditions. The beep code is followed by
a user-visible code on the POST Progress LEDs.

The Integrated BMC may generate beep codes upon detection of failure conditions. Beep codes
are sounded each time the problem is discovered, such as on each power-up attempt, but are
not sounded continuously. Codes that are common across all Intel
that use same generation chipset are listed in the following table. Each digit in the code is
represented by a sequence of beeps whose count is equal to the digit.

POST Progress Code
NA
Short beep sounded whenever a USB device is discovered
in POST, or inserted or removed during runtime
0xAE, 0xAF
System halted because Intel
Technology detected a potential violation of system
security.
See Tables 28 and 29
System halted because a fatal error related to the memory
was detected.
NA
Recovery boot has been initiated
NA
BIOS recovery has failed. This typically happens so quickly
after recovery us initiated that it sounds like a 2-4 beep
code.
