Boot TS - BIOS Startup Screen Displayed

Explanation: The BIOS has succeeded in displaying the initial startup screen.

Diagnosis: The initial BIOS power-on tests have been successful.

Recommendation: Check to see if the system is performing the memory test. You can tell if the memory is being tested if you see on the screen something that starts as "0 KB" or similar, and then the number quickly increases, counting up the total amount of memory in the machine.
