The Symptom-to-FRU lists symptoms, errors, and the possible causes. The most
likely cause is listed first. Use this Symptom-to-FRU index to help you decide
which FRUs to have available when servicing the computer. The POST BIOS
displays POST error codes and messages on the screen.
Beep symptoms
Beep symptoms are short tones or a series of short tones separated by pauses
(intervals without sound). See the following examples.
