POST is the abbreviation for POWER ON SELF TEST, which is a self-diagnostic test that
checks for abnormalities within the computer. This test is automatically carried out when the
power is switched on for this computer. If the power is switched off during the POST, an error
message is displayed the next time the computer is started up. Do not cut off the power
during the POST.
Critical Point
Do not carry this computer around or subject it to shock or vibration with the power on. These
can result in breakdown.
