Appendix A: BIOS Error Codes Appendix A BIOS Error Codes A-1 BIOS Error Beep (POST) Codes During the POST (Power-On Self-Test) 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.
Page 106
When BIOS performs the Power On Self Test, it writes checkpoint codes to I/O port 0080h. If the computer cannot complete the boot process, a diagnostic card can be attached to the computer to read I/O port 0080h (Supermicro p/n AOC-LPC80-20). For information on AMI updates, please refer to http://www.ami.com/products/.
