Error Handling Page
Generally, in a normal desktop BIOS, when an error is encountered by the POST sequence, the
bootstrap stops and waits for a reboot. For example a simple keyboard absence represents an

Handling
page, the user can decide to ignore one or more of errors that could be encountered
during the boot.
