During my power-on self-test I detected a number of error states.

These latter are displayed when the Insert key is pressed during power-on self-test.

It is typically used during the power-on self-test for automatic configuration of memory modules.

Recovery partitions are typically accessed by using a specific key combination during or after the computer's Power-on self-test.

For more information, refer to 'Power-on Self-Test', earlier in this chapter.

After the drive passed the Power-On Self-Test the cartridge may be ejected.

When an ordinary modern computer is turned on, it starts by doing a power-on self-test (POST).

A power-on self-test (POST) will perform a comprehensive test.

Hardware asset information is updated every time the system runs through power-on self-test (POST).

Installing memory modules larger than 2 GB has caused the Aspire to fail the power-on self-test.

And I'll tell you, on the Mac, I boot from it, and the boot time has come down to almost nothing after the power-on self-test.

If the system has just been powered up or the reset button was pressed ("cold boot"), the full power-on self-test (POST) is run.

Generally during the power-on self-test, BIOS access can be gained by hitting either a function key or the delete key.

By pressing the Delete key during power-on self-test when a prompt is displayed, the BIOS setup utility program is invoked.

A power-on self-test (POST) is a process performed by firmware or software routines immediately after a computer or other digital electronic device is powered on.

This is an example of dual booting, in which the user chooses which operating system to start after the computer has performed its Power-on self-test (POST).

Simple standard diagnostic plug-in boards for computers are available that display numeric codes to assist in identifying issues detected during the power-on self-test executed automatically during system startup.

I took a look at the machine and found that immediately after POST" - the Power-On Self-Test - "the screen would say no boot disk was found.

During this phase, BIOS first executes Power-on self-test (POST), then checks the existence of boot disk on A drive.

In computing, a POST card is a plug-in interface card that displays progress and error codes generated during power-on self-test (POST) of a computer.

On modern general purpose computers, this can take tens of seconds and typically involves performing a power-on self-test, locating and initializing peripheral devices, and then finding, loading and starting the operating system.

This program runs a power-on self-test (POST) to check and initialize required devices such as DRAM and the PCI bus (including running embedded ROMs).

At a high level this can be viewed similar to the PC BIOS's power-on self-test (POST) that performs a self-test of the RAM and buses on power-up.

The beep is also sometimes used to notify the user when the BIOS is not working or there is some other error during the start up process, often during the power-on self-test (POST).
