Appendix C: POST Error Beep Codes
The following table lists POST error beep codes. Prior to system video initialization, BIOS uses
these beep codes to inform users on error conditions. The beep code is followed by a user
visible code on POST Progress LEDs.

Description
3
Memory error
System halted because a fatal error related to the memory
was detected.
6
BIOS rolling back
error
The system has detected a corrupted BIOS in the flash
part, and is rolling back to the last good BIOS.
The BMC may generate beep codes upon detection of failure conditions. Beep codes are
sounded each time the problem is discovered, such as on each power-up attempt, but are not
sounded continuously. Codes that are common across all Intel
®
Server Boards and systems
that use the Intel
®
5000 Chipset are listed in Table 32. Each digit in the code is represented by a
sequence of beeps whose count is equal to the digit.
