01h

Memory check

DRAM type and size check (at Cold boot)

 

 

 

 

 

If RAM size is "0", the program halts

 

 

 

 

 

SM-RAM stack area test

 

 

 

 

 

If the SM-RAM cannot be used as stack, the

 

 

program halts

In the case of CMOS error, no resume occurs.

 

 

 

03h

Resume branch check

If “resume status code” is not set, no resume

 

 

occurs

 

(at Cold boot only)

Resume error check
