POST message charts The computer might display more than one error message. Often, the first error to occur causes subsequent errors. When using the POST message charts in this section, always begin by following the suggested action for the first error message that appears on your computer screen. Note that, in these charts, "X" can be any alphanumeric character. Important If you find it necessary to remove the computer cover, first read "Removing the Cover" in Installing Options in Your Personal Computer for important safety information and instructions.
