HP Bios Post Error Codes
By Becky Roberts Because Hewlett-Packard (HP) uses motherboards and BIOSs from several manufacturers, their computers use a variety of power on self test (POST) error messages. Instead of listing each model's error messages, this list provides links to the support pages of popular HP workstations and servers. If you don't see a particular HP machine listed here, check HP's Web site. Send us a link to the machines POST codes via the mail-to link on the last page of this document. Note: Hewlett-Packard and Compaq merged in 2002 and the new company dropped the Compaq name from all but a few consumer product lines--such as Presario desktops and notebooks. This table lists only HP-branded systems.
