The following table shows the test sequence carried out, the type of error
message, and the action to take.
Preboot Diagnostics Error Codes
When a failure occurs prior to the operating system loading, the
Workstation beeps three times, then begins a series of beeps. These
beeps identify the part that needs troubleshooting or replacement.
