[QUOTE="patcooke, post: 705516, member: 39034"] POST stands fro Power On Startup Test and POST refers to the basic hardware tests executed befor trying to boot. If POST detects an error (commonly with RAM, disk etc) it will sound a series of lond and/or short beeps which can be used to identify the nature of the POST test. It will then most commonly just crash but if the error is not fatal then it may boot in safe mode as yours did. Having done this just once it may well have been a transient error which you will not see again and in which case it will be difficult if not impossible to identity the problem. If it does recur then you should try to note the beep code sounded by POST to identify the proble. [/QUOTE]
