Power On Self Test (POST) Codes

Each POST Code represents a series of events that take place in a system during the POST. If the POST fails during a particular POST Code, the system will not boot as expected.

The BIOS uses I/O port 80h to store the active POST Code. A POST Code board is a tool that is used to display the POST Codes on I/O port 80h. This is usually accomplished with two 7-segment LEDs. Such a board is useful for debugging a system that is unable to boot.
