Click on the "Technical Information" drop down list for pages containing tips, tricks,
solutions and tutorials. I checked the page for BIOS Beep Codes. Sure enough there
where the beep codes of different BIOS manufacturers. If you've ever had a really dead
computer, then I don't need to explain to you what beep codes are. If you've never had to
use beep codes - then you don't want to know!
