A catastrophic system error, which caused the server to crash, has been logged. No valid memory is present in the system. The power has cycled because the temperature is too hot. The processor fan is not installed, or is not spinning. A critical fan is not spinning. Recommended Action Run Compaq Diagnostics to identify and replace the appropriate memory module. Run Diagnostics. Replace failed assembly as indicated. 1. If no memory modules are present, install at least one memory module to conform to minimum hardware configuration specifications. 2. Reseat all installed memory modules. 3. If the system contains more than one memory module, remove one module, and restart the server. Repeat as needed to isolate the bad memory module. Check fans. 1. Check fans. 2. Check fan cable connections. A memory module failure generated a multiple bit error that could not be corrected. The System ROM is not properly programmed. Processor was not fully seated. A processor internal failure occurred. Run Compaq Diagnostics and replace failed memory module as indicated. Flash the ROM as explained in the troubleshooting guide or call a Compaq authorized service provider. 1. Reseat the processor. 2. Replace the processor if the failure recurs. continued

Recommended Action
A Correctable
Memory Error
occurred prior to this
power-up
None
A memory module has
experienced an error which,
while recoverable, has generated

A Critical Error
occurred prior to this
power-up
None
A catastrophic system error,
which caused the server to
crash, has been logged.
Run Diagnostics. Replace failed
assembly as indicated.
Beeps only
2 long
No valid memory is present in
the system.
1.
If no memory modules are
present, install at least one
memory module to
conform to minimum
hardware configuration
specifications.
2.
Reseat all installed
memory modules.
3.
If the system contains
more than one memory
module, remove one
module, and restart the
server. Repeat as needed
to isolate the bad memory
module.
Beeps only
2 long, 2 short
