The Power-On Self Test (POST)
Each time you turn on the computer, the system takes a few seconds to con-
duct a
POST , including a quick test of the on-board RAM (memory).
As the POST proceeds, the computer will tell you if there is anything wrong.
If there is a problem that prevents the system from booting, it will display a
system summary and prompt you to run
Setup .
If there are no problems, the Setup prompt will disappear and the system will
load the operating system. Once that starts, you can’t get into Setup without
rebooting.
