Repeating short beeps
The system board might contain a failing component, your keyboard might be defective, or a key on the keyboard might be stuck. Ensure that:
1.Nothing is resting on the keyboard and pressing a key.
2.No key is stuck.
3.The keyboard cable is connected correctly to the keyboard and to the correct connector on the server.
Running the diagnostic tests can isolate the server component that failed, but you must have your system serviced. If the error message remains, call for service.
Note: If you just connected a new mouse or other pointing device, turn off the server and disconnect that device. Wait at least 5 seconds; then, turn on the server. If the error message goes away, replace the device.

One long and three short beeps
The
Two long and two short beeps
POST does not support the optional video adapter. This beep combination occurs when you install a video adapter that is incompatible with your server. Replace the optional video adapter with one that the server supports, or use the integrated video controller.
