    Memory failure Steady, long beeps Power supply bad No beep Power supply bad, system not plugged in, or power not turned on No beep If everything seems to be functioning correctly there may be a problem with the 'beeper' itself. The system will normally beep one short beep. One long, two short beeps Video card failure

    The power to the CPU(s) and RAM is maintained. Peripherals such as monitor and hard disk may be turned off. S2 CPU powered off. Dirty cache is flushed to RAM. S3 Commonly referred to as Standby, Sleep, or Suspend to RAM (STR): RAM remains powered, and RAM enters low power mode. Most peripherals are turned off. Fans are usually turned off.

  4. Nonvolatile BIOS memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonvolatile_BIOS_memory

    Nonvolatile BIOS memory refers to a small memory on PC motherboards that is used to store BIOS settings. It is traditionally called CMOS RAM because it uses a volatile, low-power complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) SRAM (such as the Motorola MC146818 [1] or similar) powered by a small battery when system and standby power is off.

    NonStop is a series of server computers introduced to market in 1976 by Tandem Computers Inc., [1] beginning with the NonStop product line. [2] It was followed by the Tandem Integrity NonStop line of lock-step fault-tolerant computers, now defunct (not to be confused with the later and much different Hewlett-Packard Integrity product line extension).

  6. Trusted execution environment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_execution_environment

    Only trusted applications running in a TEE have access to the full power of a device's main processor, peripherals, and memory, while hardware isolation protects these from user-installed apps running in a main operating system. Software and cryptogaphic inside the TEE protect the trusted applications contained within from each other. [14]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_boot_attack

    In computer security, a cold boot attack (or to a lesser extent, a platform reset attack) is a type of side channel attack in which an attacker with physical access to a computer performs a memory dump of a computer's random-access memory (RAM) by performing a hard reset of the target machine.
