During the POST the BIOS signals a checkpoint by issuing one code to I O address 80H This code can be used to establish how far the BIOS has executed through the power on sequence and what test is currently being performed This is done to help troubleshoot faulty system board If the BIOS detects a terminal error condition it will halt the POST process and attempt to display the checkpoint code written to port 80H If the system hangs before the BIOS detects the terminal error the value at port 80H will be the last test performed In this case the terminal error cannot be displayed on the screen The following POST checkpoint codes are valid for all AMIBIOS products with a core BIOS date of 07 15 95 version 6 24 Enhanced Uncompressed Initialization Codes The uncompressed initialization checkpoint hex codes are listed in order of execution Code Description DO NMI is disabled CPU ID saved INIT code checksum verification will be started D1 Initializing the DMA controller performing the keyboard controller BAT test starting memory refresh and going to 4GB flat mode D3 To start memory sizing ROBO 485 515 User s Manual 4 12 BIOS Setup Information Code Description D4 Returning to real mode Executing any OEM patches and setting the stack next D5 Passing control to the uncompressed code in shadow RAM at E000 0000h The INIT code is copied to segment 0 and control will
