PSTO208 system bios has halted. check console for detail

Hi - Need some assistance please. I am new to servers and need help with a message appearing on one of the dell precision units. After a restart it is displaying the message 'PSTO208 system bios has halted. check console for detail' in the display.

What does this mean?

Thanks in advance

KK22,

 

Normally with that error you want to start with

1) If new hardware has been added, remove the new hardware and restart the server,

2) Turn server off and back on using the power button, or

3) Remove and reapply server input power

 

If the issue persists then you may want to consider taking the system to its Minimum to Post configuration. If you clarify the specific model system I can let you know what that entails.

 

Let me know.
