Module 4, Lesson 1: PLAN AND PREPARE FOR DIAGNOSIS OF
COMPUTER SYSTEMS ERRORS
There are several errors in a computer
from the point you open it up to the point
you reach the stand by window (reaching
standby windows means boot process
has no error).

Here is a list of computer errors:
1. No Video Output - When you open your
PC, nothing shows up in your monitor
and the LED indicator of your monitor is
flashing in yellow color.

2. No Video Output - Same as number
one but now the LED indicator of your
monitor is in steady orange color.

3. Doesn't Boot - When you open your PC
it will show the processor brand and/or
the motherboard brand but doesn't
continue. Usually this error will result to
system restart over and over again.

4. Never Ending Loading of Operating
system - The computer opens up then
boots but when the operating system
loads it doesn't continue and it will take
a lifetime if you're going to wait for it to
load.

5. Lots of pop up windows showing on
standby mode - This also happens even if
you try disconnecting your computer set
from the internet. This is what we called
aftershock virus which will continue to run
even if internet is disconnected

6. Lots of hardware installation windows
appear - This happens even if you try
installing the hardware. When you
restart your set it will happen again.

7. Safe mode doesn't work - When you try
going to safe mode all you will see is a
list of files in Command prompt style.

z
8. Keyboard and mouse system restart -
This will happen only in standby mode,
when you move your mouse or type
something, your system will
automatically restart and the worst part
is it will delete a file at random.
11/21/2017

z
9. Sound on/off error - Upon loading the
operating system, you will hear a
loading sound and then the sound
stops, when you try running an audio
file, no sound will be heard.

z
10. Application causes system to restart -
Just like the mouse problem, when you
open a program that will take the whole
screen like for example a game and/or a
program applications, when you close it,
it will cause your system to restart.

Aside from the common computer errors,
computers also can have different
Operating System (OS) errors.
11/21/2017
13

z
OS errors can be classified into various
categories, such as:
1. System errors - These are moderately
dangerous types of errors among those that can
pop up on your PC. System errors are caused by
malfunctioning hardware components, corrupted
operating system modules, etc.
11/21/2017
14

z
2. Runtime errors - Runtime errors are caused by
corrupted or malfunctioning system files or
software executables. Most runtime errors cause
the application that caused it to shut down.
11/21/2017
15

z
2. Runtime errors - However, more serious runtime
errors may cause the system to become unstable
or unresponsive, leaving you with no choice but
to reach for the Reset button.
11/21/2017
16

z
3. Stop errors - Stop errors are caused by
corrupted hardware, especially malfunctioning
RAM modules and bad sectors on hard disks.
Stop errors can be difficult to resolve at times.
11/21/2017
17

z
4. Device Manager Errors - These are usually
caused by corrupted driver files or malfunctioning
hardware components. In case of the former
cause, the problem is usually solved simply by
reinstalling or updating the drivers.
11/21/2017

z
4. Device Manager Errors - However, the latter
cause can often be solved only by replacing
hardware components.
11/21/2017

z
5. POST code errors - POST code errors are
caused by malfunctioning hardware components,
and are characterized by short beep sounds from
the tiny internal speaker of your motherboard.
POST code errors occur when you press the
power button to turn on your PC.

z
6. Application errors - These can be caused at any
point of time. As the name suggests, these are
caused by applications while those are running.
These are usually caused by glitches in the
program code itself. These are usually resolved
by updating the program to its latest version.
11/21/2017

z
7. Browser Status Codes - These are caused by
problems faced by browsers when trying to
access a website. These can be caused by
misplaced web pages in the server of the website
itself, or due to connection problems.
11/21/2017
22

z
7. Browser Status Codes - For instance, a 404
error would indicate that the browser is trying to
access a webpage that does not exist in the
specified location.
