A Error Messages and Indicators Desktop Board D945GCCR reports POST errors in two ways: • By sounding a beep code • By displaying an error message on the monitor BIOS Beep Codes The BIOS also issues a beep code (one long tone followed by two short tones) during POST if the video configuration fails (a faulty video card or no card installed) or if an external ROM module does not properly checksum to zero. Table 11 lists the BIOS codes. Table 11.
