POST Sequence And POST Error
In this phase, MaxiLife waits for any error messages that the BIOS may issue. If such an
error occurs, an error code appears on the monitor screen.
On the HP Workstation x2100, a screen similar to Figure 4-3 displays. The error code
that appears on the LCD status panel is the same as the one that appears on the monitor
screen. If the POST issues several error codes, only the last one is visible on the LCD
status panel.
