System Test and Initialization The system uses certain routines to perform testing and initialization. If an error, fatal or non-fatal, is encountered, a few short beeps or an error message will be outputted. The board can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors. The system configuration verification routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the CMOS memory.
