4.5 Port 80h POST Codes
During the POST, the BIOS generates diagnostic progress codes (POST codes) to I/O
port 80h. If the POST fails, execution stops and the last POST code generated is left
at port 80h. This code is useful for determining the point where an error occurred.
Displaying the POST codes requires a PCI bus add-in card, often called a POST card.
The POST card can decode the port and display the contents on a medium such as a
seven-segment display.
NOTE
The POST card must be installed in the PCI bus connector.
The following tables provide information about the POST codes generated by the
BIOS:
• Table 46 lists the Port 80h POST code ranges
• Table 47 lists the Port 80h POST codes themselves
• Table 48 lists the Port 80h POST sequence
NOTE
In the tables listed above, all POST codes and range values are listed in hexadecimal.
