A processor-based system may selectively undergo one of two power on self test routines. The determination as to whether to undergo the full power on self routine or an abbreviated routine is based on whether or not the user has opened the chassis of the computer system. If the chassis has not been opened, one may assume the components of the system have not been altered and an abbreviated post is used because all the components need not be testing during the boot process.
