The LCD Menu

To access the LCD main menu, press one of the LCD keys. This menu is
composed of several menu items which are displayed two at a time on the
LCD screen. The following menus are available:
• System Info. Obtains information from the BIOS and the system's Serial
EEPROM from a previously successful boot. This information includes:
product name, BIOS version, serial number, the number of processors and
speed, size of memory for each DIMM socket. The BIOS logs information
in the serial EEPROM with SYSINFO.COM at the end of the boot.
• Boot Steps. Shows the Power-On Self-Test (POST) codes during the
system startup. The POST code is provided by the BIOS and is displayed
on the LCD panel as soon as it is available. If the system stops during the
startup, the last successful boot step POST code is displayed on the LCD.
• Diagnostics. Runs a set of diagnostics assessing the system's components
(CPU presence, CPU power errors, power supply, clocks, and DIMM
presence). To view the test results for each system component, press
button. If no errors are detected, a screen will display a smiling face. If an
error is detected, an error screen appears indicating the problem.
