Memory count during POST is wrong. Cause The memory modules may not be installed correctly. Integrated graphics may use system memory. Solution Check that the memory modules have been installed correctly and that proper modules are used. No action required. Insufficient memory error during operation. Cause Too many Terminate and Stay Resident programs (TSRs) are installed. You have run out of memory for the application. Solution Delete any TSRs that you do not need. Check the memory requirements for the application or add more memory to the computer. Power LED flashes Red five times, once every second, followed by a two second pause, and the computer beeps five times. (Beeps stop after fifth iteration but LEDs continue flashing.)
