POST error codes
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of tests that
check the operation of the system and some options. This series of tests is
called the Power-On Self-Test, or POST. POST does the following operations.
• Checks some basic system-board operations
• Checks the memory operation
• Starts the video operation
• Verifies that the boot drive is working
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears on the screen. A
single problem can cause several error messages to appear. When you correct
the cause of the first error message, the other error messages probably will
not appear on the screen the next time you turn on the system.
