System Beep Codes

When an error that cannot be reported on the monitor occurs during a boot routine, the system may emit a series of beeps that identifies the problem.
When a beep code is emitted, make a note of it and then look it up in Table 3-10. If you are unable to resolve the problem by looking up the meaning of the
beep code, use the system diagnostics to identify a more serious cause.
NOTE: If the system boots without a keyboard, mouse, or monitor attached, the system will not issue beep codes related to those peripherals.
NOTE: Before you perform any procedures described in Table 3-10, see
