Starting your computer
What you see and hear when you start up your computer depends on the
settings in the Start Options menu of the Configuration/Setup Utility
program. The default settings are Power On Status Disabled and Power On
Self Test
Quick.
Note: Other selections also might change what is displayed when the
computer starts up.
The following briefly describes what happens in the default mode when
you turn on your computer:
Note: The following screens or messages might display only for a very
short period.
1. The IBM logo appears.
2. The following messages appear:
Press F12 to boot from the network
Press F1 for Configuration/Setup
3. If any errors were detected during POST, messages about them are
displayed.
4. If you have set a power-on password, a prompt appears on the screen.
If you have set both power-on and administrator passwords, you can
type either password at the password prompt. When you type your
password at the prompt and press Enter, the first screen of your
operating system or application program appears.
5. If the system hardware configuration has changed or an error is
detected, the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu might be
displayed when you press Enter.
For more information, see “Power-on self-test (POST)” on page 100.
If Power On Status is Enabled, and the power-on self-test (POST) finishes
without detecting a problem, you hear one beep. If POST detects a problem
when you start your computer, you hear multiple beeps or no beep. In
most cases, an error code appears in the top-left corner of the screen, and in
some cases a description of the error is displayed beside the code. The
screen will sometimes display multiple error codes and descriptions. Write
down all error code numbers and descriptions.
