BIOS POST Code Checkpoints
Typically, the BIOS displays warning or error messages on the video display in the event of
hardware or configuration errors.
However, if the error is so severe that the BIOS halts immediately or cannot initialize the video,
you can read the last executed POST code from the port 80 LED. The port 80 LED is located on
the lower right side of the motherboard (see
Figure
B–1).
The BIOS POST codes are listed in
Table
B–1.
