You work as a Network Administrator for NetTech Inc. A server in the network is unable to load the
network operating system. You find that a POST error has occurred. You want to use a POST
diagnostic hardware adapter to diagnose the error. How will you use it?
A.
Insert the card into an open bus slot. Boot the computer. The error codes will display on the
adapter.
B.
Connect the card to a serial port. Boot the computer. The error codes will be stored in a memory
buffer created by the card.
C.
Insert the card into an open bus slot. Boot the computer. The error codes will print.
D.
Insert the card into an open bus slot. Boot the computer using the floppy disk provided by the
card manufacturer. The error codes will be stored on a floppy disk.
Explanation:
POST diagnostic hardware cards display error codes on the adapters.C, D, and B are incorrect. Post does not store error codes on a floppy disk or on memory. It
also does not print error codes.
