Appendix B
BIOS POST Checkpoint Codes
When AMIBIOS performs the Power On Self Test, it writes checkpoint codes to I/O
port 0080h. If the computer cannot complete the boot process, diagnostic equipment
can be attached to the computer to read I/O port 0080h.
B-1 Uncompressed Initialization Codes
The uncompressed initialization checkpoint codes are listed in order of execution:
Checkpoint
Code Description
D0h
The NMI is disabled. Power on delay is starting. Next, the initialization code checksum will be
verifi ed.
D1h
Initializing the DMA controller, performing the keyboard controller BAT test, starting memory
refresh and entering 4 GB fl at mode next.
D3h
Starting memory sizing next.
D4h
Returning to real mode. Executing any OEM patches and setting the Stack next.
D5h
Passing control to the uncompressed code in shadow RAM at E000:0000h. The initialization
code is copied to segment 0 and control will be transferred to segment 0.
D6h
Control is in segment 0. Next, checking if <Ctrl> <Home> was pressed and verifying the system
BIOS checksum. If either <Ctrl> <Home> was pressed or the system BIOS checksum is bad,
next will go to checkpoint code E0h. Otherwise, going to checkpoint code D7h.
