Page 65: Bios Error Codes
Appendix B BIOS Error Codes During Power-On Self-Test (POST) routines, which are performed each time the system is powered on, errors may occur. Non-fatal errors are those which, in most cases, allow the system to continue the boot-up process. The error messages normally appear on the screen. Fatal errors are those which will not allow the system to continue the boot-up procedure.
