154 Chapter 4
* If the BIOS detects error 2C, 2E, or 30 (base 512K RAM error), it displays an additional word-bitmap (xxxx)
indicating the address line or bits that failed. For example, 2C 0002 means address line 1 (bit one set) has
failed. 2E 1020 means data bits 12 and 5 (bits 12 and 5 set) have failed in the lower 16 bits. Note that error 30
cannot occur on 386SX systems because they have a 16 rather than 32-bit bus. The BIOS also sends the
bitmap to the port-80 LED display. It first displays the check point code, followed by a delay, the high-order
byte, another delay, and then the low-order byte of the error. It repeats this sequence continuously.
