Power On Self Test (POST)
The system BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) performs a series of Power On
Self Test (POST) on system memory and key computer components when the
computer is turned on every time. If an error exists, the POST routine may halt
execution (depending on the seriousness of the problem). The POST also
initializes BIOS configuration then boots the operating system.
POST Message: Normal Operation
You will see the following message if no error exists after the POST is
performed
Note: You may press the Spacebar key to skip the memory test.
