If the BIOS detects error 2C, 2E, or 30 (base 512K RAM error), it displays an additional

word-bitmap (xxxx) indicating the address line or bits that failed. For example, “2C

0002” means address line 1 (bit one set) has failed. “2E 1020" means data bits 12

and 5 (bits 12 and 5 set) have failed in the lower 16 bits. The BIOS also sends the

bitmap to the port-80 LED display. It fi rst displays the checkpoint code, followed by

a delay, the high-order byte, another delay, and then the loworder byte of the error.

It repeats this sequence continuously.
