Table D-6 Uncompressed Initialization Codes
The following runtime checkpoint codes are listed in order of execution. These codes are uncompressed in F0000h shadow RAM.
Checkpoint | Description |
| |
Code |
| ||
|
| ||
03h | The NMI is disabled. Next, checking for a soft reset or a | ||
power on condition. |
| ||
|
| ||
05h | The BIOS stack has been built. Next, disabling cache | ||
memory. |
| ||
|
| ||
06h | Uncompressing the POST code next. |
| |
07h | Next, initializing the CPU and the CPU data area. |
| |
08h | The CMOS checksum calculation is done next. |
| |
0Ah | The CMOS checksum calculation is done. Initializing | ||
the CMOS status register for date and time next. |
| ||
|
| ||
| The CMOS status register is initialized. | Next, | |
0Bh | performing any required initialization before the | ||
| keyboard BAT command is issued. |
| |
0Ch | The keyboard controller input buffer is free. | Next, | |
issuing the BAT command to the keyboard controller. | |||
| |||
| The keyboard controller BAT command result has been | ||
0Eh | verified. Next, performing any necessary initialization | ||
| after the keyboard controller BAT command test. |
| |
| The initialization after the keyboard controller BAT | ||
0Fh | command test is done. The keyboard command byte is | ||
| written next. |
| |
| The keyboard controller command byte is written. Next, | ||
10h | issuing the Pin 23 and 24 blocking and unblocking | ||
| command. |
| |
| Next, checking if <End or <Ins> keys were pressed | ||
| during power on. |
| |
11h | Initializing CMOS RAM if the Initialize CMOS RAM in | ||
| every boot AMIBIOS POST option was set in AMIBCP | ||
| or the <End> key was pressed. |
| |
12h | Next, disabling DMA controllers 1 and 2 and interrupt | ||
controllers 1 and 2. |
| ||
|
| ||
13h | The video display has been disabled. Port B has been | ||
initialized. Next, initializing the chipset. |
| ||
|
| ||
14h | The 8254 timer test will begin next. |
| |
19h | The 8254 timer test is over. Starting the memory refresh | ||
test next. |
