Power On Self Test
BIOS first performs a Power On Self Test (POST) within the boot routine to verify proper
operation of certain functional units of the PC. The boot sequence is interrupted immediately
if a fatal error is detected.
BIOS initializes and tests further functional units if the POST does not return any errors. In
this startup phase, the graphics controller is initialized and any error messages are output to
the screen.
The error messages output by system BIOS are listed below. For information on error
messages output by the operating system or application programs, refer to the
corresponding manuals.
