pre-boot diagnostics and BIOS errors handling pre-boot, BIOS, or e-Diagtools errors handling pre-boot, BIOS, or e-Diagtools errors There are two ways to deal with an error. You can call your support provider or troubleshoot the error yourself. This section covers both of these scenarios. calling your support provider A service provider equipped with a Virtual Call Assistant kit can interpret modulated audio error signals to determine the source of the error, whether from pre-boot diagnostics (beep errors), from the BIOS (BIOS error messages), or from e-Diagtools. The audio signal should contain all the necessary information, including computer model and serial number. To use Virtual Call Assistance, call your service provider and, when prompted, play the audio error signal into the telephone handset. To play the audio signal: • For BIOS error messages, press Enter and F11 • For pre-boot errors (beep errors), press the computer's power button for at least ﬁve seconds • For e-Diagtools errors, press F11 when indicated on the screen. The support provider can then decode the signal and provide a solution. For more information about the Virtual Call Assistant, refer to the Virtual Call Assistant User's Guide, available in PDF format on your HP workstation's support web site: www.hp.com/workstations/support 102 Chapter 4
