I've recently had a random problem with my computer hanging in the POST, I eventually found a LED display on the motherboard and was able to match that configuration to the diagnostic LED function chart and found that it was hanging at " intializing the floppy drive controller". I disconnected the data cord for the drive at the motherboard and this seemed to have solved the problem, now several days later it has started to hang at random times again, but this time the LED display is showing random displays. Can someone please help me figure out what is happening here? As I understand it the POST involves the RAM, disk drive, peripheral devices, and hardware, where do I start to untangle this one?
