Each time that the computer is powered-up, the power on self test (POST) is executed.
The POST tests:
•

•
floppy disk drive and controller
•

If all the tests are completed sucessfully, one short beep will be heard from the
loudspeaker in the system unit.
If a failure is encountered, one or more of the following responses will be obtained:
•
a blank screen
•
no beep or more than one beep
•
an error message
If a blank screen is obtained, check that power is applied to both the system unit and
