Codes

Whenever a recoverable error occurs during the power-on self-test (POST), the
BIOS displays an error message that describes the problem. The BIOS also sounds
a beep code for errors when video is not available for text messages.
A PCI expansion card (for example, a RAID controller) can also issue audible
errors by itself, usually consisting of one long tone followed by a series of short
tones. For more information on the beep codes issued, check the
documentation for that device.
Your server runs, but you hear no beep codes at startup.
■ The speaker may be defective. If the speaker is enabled but does not work,
call Gateway Technical Support.
