What does Dr. Debug code 0x30 mean?

[meyerkev]

So I got an AsRock z68 Professional Gen3 as a replacement for my busted Asus p8z68-v Pro, and I'm getting error code 0x30 when I try to boot.

The error code is very opaque: "Reserved for ASL (see ASL Status Codes section below)" where below = nowhere, and no one on the internet seems to know what it means.

Anyone got a clue?

/Also, Asus, get a move on. I requested an RMA last week, and haven't heard squat back.

ASL status codes appear to be about sleep states.

ACPI/ASL Checkpoints

01 - System is entering S1 sleep state
02 - System is entering S2 sleep state
03 - System is entering S3 sleep state
04 - System is entering S4 sleep state
05 - System is entering S5 sleep state
10 - System is waking up from the S1 sleep state
20 - System is waking up from the S2 sleep state
30 - System is waking up from the S3 sleep state
40 - System is waking up from the S4 sleep state
AC - System has transitioned into ACPI mode. Interrupt controller is in APIC mode
AA - System has transitioned into ACPI mode. Interrupt controller is in APIC mode

Turn the power off to your computer, unplug it, and then clear the CMOS. Reseat your memory and the processor if it's not much of a hassle to do so. Check to make sure none of the pins are bent in the socket. Check memory compatibility online. Try one stick in the slot designated in the manual. It should tell you this somewhere. Sure I'm forgetting some basic troubleshooting steps but I hope some of this helps.

So apparently I wasn't pushing the memory in hard enough. I honestly thought I was gonna snap the board in half, so... Oh well, I think my problems are all gone, and now I just need to do a fresh install.
