100 Chapter 7 POST error messages and diagnostic front panel LEDs and audible codes
Description
MEBx operation experienced a hardware error
during communication with the ME.
Front audio cable has been detached or
unseated from system board.
Memory amount has changed since the last boot
(memory added or removed).
Memory module configuration failed during boot
up.
A memory module in memory socket identified in
the error message is missing critical SPD
information, or is incompatible with the chipset.
The current memory configuration is not
optimized.
Recently added memory module(s) support ECC
memory error correction.
DIMM1 is not installed.
The storage device configuration will be updated
as shown.
Hard drive is about to fail. (Some hard drives
have a hard drive firmware patch that will fix an
erroneous error message.)
Hard drive is about to fail. (Some hard drives
have a hard drive firmware patch that will fix an
erroneous error message.)
Recommended action
3.
If the error still persists, replace the system
board.
1.
Reboot the computer.
2.
If the error persists, update to the latest
BIOS version.
3.
If the error still persists, replace the system
board.
Reconnect or replace front audio cable.
The system memory size is different from
the last startup. The most common reason is
the removal of memory from the system board.
Press the
F1
key to save the memory changes. If
this message persists, verify that the memory
modules are installed correctly.
1.
Ensure memory modules are correctly
installed.
2.
Verify proper memory module type.
3.
Remove and replace the identified faulty
memory module(s).
4.
If the error persists after replacing memory
modules, replace the system board.
1.
Verify proper memory module type.
2.
Try another memory socket.
3.
Replace with a supported module.
Rearrange the DIMMs so that each channel has
the same amount of memory.
1.
If additional memory was recently added,
remove it to see if the problem remains.
2.
Check product documentation for memory
support information.
Make sure there is a memory module in
the DIMM1 socket and that it is properly seated.
Not applicable
1.
Determine if hard drive is giving correct
error message. Run the Drive Protection
System test under using F2 Diagnostics
when booting the computer.
2.
Apply hard drive firmware patch
if applicable. (Available at

3.
Back up contents and replace hard drive.
1.
Determine if hard drive is giving correct
