Troubleshooting with HP e-DiagTools HP e-DiagTools Hardware Tests HP e-DiagTools Hardware Tests The following hardware tests can be performed from HP e-DiagTools: Ì Hardware Detection. Automatically detects the complete hardware configuration of the system (including PC Workstation model and version, processor type, cache memory, BIOS version, total main memory, IDE or SCSI device list, video adapter, audio card, keyboard, and USB controller) and determines the appropriate tests to be performed. Ì Basic System Tests. Automatically (no user input required) verifies the correct operation of different hardware components of the PC Workstation. If a warning message is displayed, you should use the Advanced System Tests to investigate the error. You can also produce a Support Ticket containing a record of the system's configuration and test result. Ì Advanced System Tests. Independently tests a selected hardware component of the PC Workstation. Because of this, the tests are more thorough than what is performed in the Basic System Tests. It should also be noted, the Advanced System Tests can only be performed after the Basic System Tests have been completed. Each test is selected through the on-line screen menu and can be repeated any number of times. For example, if there is doubt with a hard disk drive, select the hard disk drive test, then one of the proposed options. If a test fails, you can produce support ticket. 42
