I was attempting to test my old HP 6930P, but during startup a padlock started flashing. I don’t have more details. I’ll try updating if I gather more information. Edit no.1: From what I can tell, it’s a RAM issue—please re-seat it and update afterward. Edit no.5: It worked! Thanks.

A visual format would clarify things. In this scenario, a video is best since it involves movement.

What appears on the padlock is either a letter "A" or a number "1." Check the manual for details about its meaning.
