Hi
You get a LONG (MAJOR) signal category, RED LED & then a SHORT (MINOR) signal category, WHITE LED. Major – the category of the error; Minor – specific error in that category The AUDIBLE repeats 5 times, and the VISUAL until power is removed. | LONG Beeps / Blinks |
2 | BIOS |
3 | Hardware |
4 | Thermal |
5 | Main-Board |
Main- (Mother) Board | 5.2 | The embedded controller cannot find valid firmware.
Controller is missing appropriate ROM. | 1 Remove any recently inserted Hardware. 2 Reset CMOS. 3 Update BIOS while affected components are removed. 4 Test known good component. 5 Replace component or Main-Board as needed. |
