Net Vectra PC Users

If you are a Net Vectra PC user, the Hardware Diagnostics should already be installed on your PC and be ready to use. To learn how to run DiagTools on a Net Vectra PC, refer to "Starting DiagTools from the Hard Disk Drive", on page 9.

Vectra PC & Kayak PC Workstation Users and Network Administrators

For Vectra PC and Kayak PC Workstation users, as well as network administrators, you must do the following before you can use DiagTools:

Install the latest version of DiagTools on your PC.

Set up DiagTools so that it is ready for use. This means either

creating the diskette(s), or updating the Hardware Diagnostics files on your Net Vectra PC.

There are two ways to run DiagTools:

From diskettes. The PC boots (or starts) from the first diskette. This

•

is appropriate for all PCs that have a floppy disk drive. This is the most common way of using DiagTools.

From the hard disk drive. In this case, you select the Hardware

•

Diagnostics option during startup. The Hardware Diagnostics utility is installed on the hard disk drive. This is only appropriate for Net Vectra PCs. Net Vectra PCs do not usually have a floppy disk drive.

NOTE DiagTools must not be run directly from your operating system.

DiagTools will only function under the DOS operating system and once the correct drivers have been loaded.

More Information About The PC’s Setup Program

Setup is an integrated (ROM-based) program that displays the PC’s configuration and allows you to change the configuration parameters.

Setup changes system behavior by modifying the power-on initialization parameters. Setting incorrect values may cause the PC to fail at start-up. If this occurs, press F9 in the Setup program. This will load the Setup default values and allow the PC to recover.

To enter the PC’s Setup program, restart the PC and press F2 when the Vectra Logo or Kayak logo screen (or the Summary screen) appears.

NOTE FOR NET VECTRA PCS

To run DiagTools from the hard disk drive, the PC must have the correct boot (start) configuration. All Net Vectra PCs are provided with a ready-to-use Hardware Diagnostics dual boot configuration. For more information, refer to "Starting DiagTools from the Hard Disk Drive", on page 9.

Page 24

guard.bk : guard2.fb4 Page 12 Wednesday, June 30, 1999 3:06 PM

2 Hardware Detection

Overview of Hardware Detection

Hardware detection determines which tests are appropriate for your PC. For example, if your PC has a IDE or SCSI hard disk drive, the boot sector of the hard disk drive will be checked as part of the basic system test.

In the advanced tests, some functions will be disabled if they are not appropriate for your PC. For example, if you do not have a SCSI controller, the

SCSI menu in the advanced tests will be disabled.

During Hardware Detection

The following screen appears during hardware detection:

NOTE Hardware detection may be so fast that this screen simply flickers on

and off, without giving you time to read it. This is normal. The time required for hardware detection varies greatly between the different systems and different configurations.

If a PC Component is Not Detected

If a component or device in your PC (such as a hard disk drive) is not detected, do the following:

Check the list of components that DiagTools should detect (this is on

page 14). If the non-detected component is not in this list, then there is no error and the situation is normal. If the non-detected component is in this list, continue to the next step.

2 Hardware Detection

If a PC Component is Not Detected

Check that the PC is correctly configured in the PC’s Setup program.

(Refer to page 7 for more information about the PC’s Setup program.)

Refer to the User’s Guide that came with the PC for information

about troubleshooting the PC.

Run the DiagTools and proceed to the basic system test.

NOTE DiagTools does not test components that have not been detected.

However, we recommend that you continue with the basic system test to verify that the underlying components are functioning correctly.

For example: a PC has a PCI SCSI controller card installed and a SCSI hard disk connected to this controller. Even if the SCSI hard disk drive is not detected, running the basic system test will ensure the correct functioning of the PCI system that supports the SCSI controller.

If the problem persists, contact your local or HP-dedicated Support

Agent for assistance.

3 Basic System Test

Overview of the Basic System Test

The basic system test is performed after hardware detection. The purpose of the basic system tests is to verify the correct operation of the PC’s hardware. For each detected hardware component, the test will confirm that:

The component is powered-on

•

The component has been initialized for use

•

The component is operating correctly under MS-DOS.

•

Unlike the advanced system tests, the basic system test is done automatically and no user input or guidance is needed. This test phase is suitable for all types of users, including novice and non-technical users.

Most of the PC’s components are tested during the basic system test. To test all of the PC’s components, use the advanced systems tests.

How to Run the Basic System Test

The basic system test is performed after the hardware detection phase. To do the basic system test, follow these steps:

Start DiagTools. To learn how to do this, refer to chapter 1, Starting

DiagTools.

Follow the instructions on the screen to proceed with hardware

detection. Hardware detection is described in chapter 2.

You will then be invited to proceed with the basic system test. Press

and follow the instructions on your screen.

NOTE The screen image may become corrupted during the basic system test.

This is normal. Do not restart your system. The image will be restored after the test is complete.
