Beep Codes

If an error occurs during start-up that cannot be reported on the monitor,
your computer may emit a beep code that identifies the problem. The beep
code is a pattern of sounds: for example, one beep, followed by a second
beep, and then a burst of three beeps (code 1-1-3) means that the computer
was unable to read the data in nonvolatile random-access memory
(NVRAM).

If a beep code is emitted, write it down and look it up under "System Beep
Codes" in the

User’s Guide.
