Postcodes für IBM, AMI und Phoenix BIOS
| Wenn ihr euren PC das erste Mal einschaltet, wird der sogenante POWER ON SELF TEST gestartet. Während dieses Testes, der normalerweise mit Codenummern am Bildschirm ausgegeben wird, ertönen (wenn er einen eingebauten Lautsprecher hat) zusätzlich auch verschiedenen Pieptöne, was manchmal bei Fehlereinengung oder -lösung helfen kann ( auch ohne Bildschirmausgabe ) |
|
5 verschiedene Arten kann man hauptsächlich
unterscheiden:
|
| 1 x kurzer Piepton | Normal POST - System ist ok |
| 2 x kurze Pieptöne | Speicherprobleme, evtl Speicher austauschen auch zwischen den Bänken |
| 3 x kurze Pieptöne | |
| 4 x kurze Pieptöne | Speicher- oder Timerproblem |
| 5 x kurze Pieptöne | Motherboardproblem oder CPU-schaden |
| 6 x kurze Pieptöne | Keyboardproblem(A20) oder der Motherboardchip |
| 7 x kurze Pieptöne | CPU-problem oder Motherboard ist hin |
| 8 x kurze Pieptöne | Grafikkartenproblem |
| 9 x kurze Pieptöne | Biosproblem, evtl austauschen |
| 10 x kurze Pieptöne | CMOS-problem!- besser ein neues Board |
