Halt On
During the power-on-self-test (POST), the computer stops if the
BIOS detects a hardware error. You can tell the BIOS to ignore
certain errors during POST and continue the boot-up process.
These are the selections:
• No errors: POST does not stop for any errors.
• All errors If: the BIOS detects any non-fatal error, POST stops
and prompts you to take corrective action.
• All, But Keyboard: POST does not stop for a keyboard error, but
stops for all other errors
• All, But Diskette: POST does not stop for diskette drive errors,
but stops for all other errors.
• All, But Disk/Key: POST does not stop for a keyboard or disk
error, but stops for all other errors.
•
Other Memory
Between 640 KB and 1 MB; often called High memory. DOS may
load terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) programs, such as device
drivers, in this area, to free as much conventional memory as
possible for applications. Lines in your CONFIG.SYS file that start
with LOADHIGH load programs into high memory.
