Troubleshooting

Intel Server Board SE7210TP1-E User Guide 43

An error or warning condition at boot can result in a series of beeps being issued known as "beep

codes. These beeps have a code that identifies system or PCI card events. For example, some Intel®

RAID cards have beep codes. Before checking for a system beep code error make sure the PCI card

is not causing the beeping.

In the case of a Bootblock update, where video is not available for text messages to be displayed,

speaker beeps are necessary to inform the user of errors. For beep codes associated with a

Bootblock update refer to the Intel® Server Board SE7210TP1-E Technical Product Specification.
