POST Messages

When the mobile computer restarts, it tests its hardware components.

This test is called the Power On Self Test (POST). If the system finds an

error during this test, it displays an error message.
Some POST errors can occur before anything can be displayed on the

screen. In this case, the computer issues a series of beeps, then stops

working. This type of error indicates a serious hardware problem, and

you should contact your supervisor or your organization’s help desk.
The most common POST error messages are listed next along with

solutions you can try.

BIOS ROM bad checksum

An expansion card has a bad ROM checksum. The expansion card may

need to be replaced. Contact your supervisor or your organization’s help

desk.
