BIOS

Intel® Server Board SE7501WV2 TPS

Recovery BIOS will generate two beeps and flash a POST code sequence of 0E9h, 0EAh, 0EBh, 0ECh, and 0EFh on the POST Progress Code LEDs.

During recovery mode, video will not be initialized. One high-pitched beep announces the start of the recovery process. The entire process takes two to four minutes. A successful update ends with two high-pitched beeps. Failure is indicated by a long series of short beeps.
