Post Test Sequence and Post Error
In this phase, MaxiLife waits for any error messages that the BIOS may issue. If such an error occurs, then an error code is displayed on the monitor screen.
On the HP Kayak XU700 Minitower PC Workstation, a screen similar to the following example is displayed. The error code that appears on the LCD status panel is the same as the one that appears on the monitor screen. If the POST issues several error codes, only the last one is visible on the LCD status panel.
