POST error codes
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of tests that check the operation of the system
and some options. This series of tests is called the
Power-On Self-Test
, or
POST
. POST does the following
operations.
• Checks some basic system-board operations
• Checks the memory operation
• Starts the video operation
• Verifies that the boot drive is working
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears on the screen. A single problem can cause several
error messages to appear. When you correct the cause of the first error message, the other error messages
probably will not appear on the screen the next time you turn on the system.
