Operation

5.1 POST

After power up or reset, the BIOS performs a self-test, POST, that attempts to determine if

further operation is possible and that the detected configuration is expected. This process

either completes normally or results in a warning or an error. The boot process does not stop

after a warning but displays a message on the primary display device.

To view all checkpoints generated by Aptio firmware, you require a checkpoint card, also

referred to as a POST Card or POST Diagnostic Card. These are LPC add-in cards that show the

value of I/O port 80h on a LED display.

5.2 Boot Process

While performing the functions of the traditional BIOS, Aptio 4.x core follows the firmware

model described by the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for EFI. The framework refers to

the following boot phases, which applies to various status code descriptions:

zSecurity (SEC) - initial low-level initialization

zPre-EFI Initialization (PEI) - memory initialization1

zDriver Execution Environment (DXE) - main hardware initialization2

zBoot Device Selection (BDS) - system setup, pre-OS user interface and selecting a bootable

device (CD/DVD, HDD, USB, Network, Shell, and so on)

5.3 Initiating Setup

During the boot, press the F2 key on the keyboard to launch the setup utility once the self-test

is complete and before searching for a boot device. If you exit setup without saving any

changes, the boot process continues with the search for a boot device. If changes are made,

the motherboard loads the new settings and resets, restarting the entire boot process.
