v Memory Test-Quick The quick memory test will take about 20 seconds per MB of memory and will detect solid (stuck) memory failures only. Notes: Either level of memory testing can be performed on all memory or a single SIMM or DIMM socket. Only sockets containing a SIMM or DIMM can be selected for testing. Unpopulated sockets are noted by ........ beside the test description.

Alert-On LAN
¬
test
The Alert On LAN test does the following:
v
Determines if Alert On LAN is supported on the system.
v
Checks the revision ID register.
v
Verifies the EEPROM checksum.
v
Validates that a software alert can be sent.
Asset ID
¬
test
The Asset ID test does the following:
v

DeviceID
Date
ChkDigits
Text
v
Function Code:
Represents the feature or function within the PC.
v
Failure Type:
Represents the type of error encountered.
v
DeviceID:
Contains the component
’
s unit-ID which corresponds to either a fixed disk
drive, removable media drive, serial or parallel port, processor, specific SIMM or
DIMM, or a device on the PCI bus.
