The Power-On Self-Test (POST)

The POST (Power-On Self-Test) is a series of software-controlled
diagnostic tests that run when you turn on or restart your Notebook PC.
The software that controls the POST is installed as a permanent part of
the Notebook PC's architecture.

Using POST to access BIOS and Troubleshoot

During POST, you can access the BIOS settings or run troubleshooting
options using the function keys of your Notebook PC. You may refer to
the following information for more details.

BIOS

The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) stores system hardware
settings that are needed for system startup in the Notebook PC.
The default BIOS settings apply to most conditions of your Notebook
PC. Do not change the default BIOS settings except in the following
circumstances:
An error message appears onscreen during system bootup and
requests you to run the BIOS Setup.
You have installed a new system component that requires further
BIOS settings or updates.
WARNING! Using inappropriate BIOS settings may result to system
instability or boot failure. We strongly recommend that you change the
BIOS settings only with the help of a trained service personnel.

If your Asus Vivobook 16X M1603 won't turn on, possible reasons include:

1. Power Issues: Ensure the AC power adapter is properly connected. If the battery is low (below 50%), charge the device.

2. Unresponsive System: If the notebook is unresponsive, press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds to force shutdown, then try turning it on again.

3. External Devices: Disconnect all external devices and try powering it on.

4. Display Issues: If the notebook powers on but shows a black screen or colored dots, the display may have issues. If it affects performance, consult an authorized ASUS service center.

If these steps do not work, further service may be required.
