Power-On Self Test
The POST (Power-On Self Test) is a software controlled diagnostic
test tool, which is a set of routines stored in a computer’s ROM
(read-only memory) that tests various system components such
as the memory, disk drives, and the keyboard to see whether
they are properly connected and operating. If problems are found
during booting, these routines alert the user by sounding a series
of beeps or displaying a message on the screen.
