Netserver LM beep and LCD codes

MattF — Thu, 22 Nov 2001 10:37:14 GMT

Hello everyone,
I recently purchased 2 older Netserver LM systems from my school that I plan to use for a small website I run.

I have an LM 5/66 and an LM 5/100, when I try to start up either machine, they give 1 beep, then 3 beeps in a row, a slight pause, then 3 more beeps. The little LCD panel on the front displays 740:756.

I am new to the Netserver series, and I cant seem to find a listing of BIOS/beep codes anywhere on netserver.hp.com

If someone could point me in the direction of a code list, I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

Thanks alot, for some reason I couldnt find those anywhere.

Does anyone know exactly what type of RAM I should be using? I have a bunch of simms, but no combination of any of them seems to work.

Also, is there some sort of LM technical/service manual available with jumper settings, BIOS configs and other stuff like that??

Thanks again, I really appreciate the help,
Matt
