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 every time the computer is powered on. If an error
exists, the POST routine may halt execution (depending on the
severity of the problem). POST also initializes BIOS configuration
then boots the operating system.
POST Message: Normal Operation
If no error occurs, the system will be operated after the POST
process is completed.
You may press Spacebar key to skip the memory test.
