IBM Enhanced Diagnostics IBM provides programs that you can run to diagnose hardware and some software problems. Several utility programs that provide helpful information about your computer are also included. The user interface for running these diagnostic and utility programs is provided by Watergate Software PC-Doctor. The IBM Enhanced Diagnostics program will isolate your computer hardware from software that was preinstalled (or that you have installed) on your hard disk. The programs run independently of the operating system, and must be run either from CD or diskette. This method of testing is generally used when other methods are not accessible or have not been successful in isolating a problem suspected to be hardware related. The Device Driver and IBM Enhanced Diagnostics CD comes with your computer. You can also download the latest image of the diagnostics program from the IBM Web site.
