A listing of all error messages that POST can generate is located
at the end of this chapter.
If the system halts before POST completes running, a fatal
system error has occurred that requires immediate attention.
Note the screen display and write down any beep code emitted.
This information is useful to your service representative.
As POST determines the system configuration, it tests for the
presence of each mass storage peripheral device installed in the
system. As each device is checked, its access LED should turn on
briefly. Check for the following:
The floppy disk drive A activity LED turns on briefly. If not,
refer to "Floppy Disk Drive Activity LED Does Not Light" later
in this chapter.
If a second floppy disk drive B is installed, its activity LED
turns on briefly. If not, refer to "Floppy Disk Drive Activity
LED Does Not Light" later in this chapter.
If there is a hard disk drive or if there are SCSI devices
installed in the system, the hard disk drive activity LED light
turns on briefly. If not, refer to "Hard Disk Drive Activity LED
Does Not Light" later in this chapter.
Once the system has booted up, the operating system prompt
appears on the screen. The prompt varies according to the
operating system. If the operating system prompt does not
appear, refer to the Initial System Startup section earlier in
this chapter.
