After a few seconds from power-on, POST starts checking the memory. The count
message of the basic and expansion memory appears at top left on the display unit screen.
The memory check may takes a few minutes to complete depending on the memory size
of the server. Also, it may take approximately one minute for the screen display to appear
after rebooting the server.

Some messages appear upon completion of the memory check. These messages appear to
indicate that the system has detected the CPU, keyboard, and mouse.

After a few seconds, POST displays the following message prompting you to launch the
BIOS setup utility, stored in the system memory of the server. This message appears at
bottom left on the screen.

message, you don't have to launch the utility. (Ignore the message. POST will
automatically proceed.)
