| 2 short beeps | Memory parity check error. |
| 3 short beeps | basic memory 64K address check error |
| 4 short beeps | Real Time Clock malfunction |
| 5 short beeps | CPU error |
| 6 short beeps | Keyboard error |
| 7 short beeps | CPU interruption error |
| 8 short beeps | Graphic card error |
| 9 short beeps | Memory error |
| 10 short beeps | CMOS error |
| 11 short beeps | CPU cache memory malfunction |
