Attention:
The drives in the computer you are servicing might have been rearranged or the drive
startup sequence changed. Be extremely careful during write operations such as copying,
saving or formatting. Data or programs can be overwritten if you select an incorrect drive.
Diagnostic error messages appear when a test program finds a problem with a
hardware option. For the test programs to properly determine if a test Passed, Failed
or Aborted, the test programs check the error-return code at test completion. See
Chapter 4, “IBM Enhanced Diagnostics,” on page 15.
General error messages appear if a problem or conflict is found by an application
program, the operating system, or both. For an explanation of these messages, refer
to the information supplied with that software package.

Function
Code
Failure Type 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 DIMM,
or a device on the PCI bus.
v Date:
Contains the date on which the diagnostic test was run. The date is retrieved
from CMOS and displayed using the YYYYMMDD format.
v ChkDigits:
Contains a 2-digit check-digit value to ensure the following:
– Diagnostics were run on the specified date.
– Diagnostics were run on the specified IBM computer.
– The diagnostic error code is recorded correctly.
PC-Doctor’s (PCDR) Fixed-Disk Advanced Test module (FDAT) is a full-featured
highly configurable fixed-disk test suite. The configurable capabilities of FDAT
allow users to enable or disable specific tests, enable or disable testing features,
control the test log detail, alter testing parameters, etc. FDAT will test for and
report most commonly found errors on a fixed-disk drive and is able to test up to
128 SCSI and 4 IDE drives (up to 132 total drives). Drive information is gathered
through FDAT’s enumeration of available devices and user specific configuration
parameters located in the FDAT.INI. FDAT uses information supplied by these
features to indicate specifically what devices are available for test, what tests are
available for the device, device properties, etc. Modify the FDAT.INI file in PC
Doctor for DOS to change testing parameters.
FDAT consists of the following subtests and features.
To allow simultaneous testing of multiple hard drives whenever possible, the
FDAT module is written as a set of multitasking functions. Each drive under test
can run the same test or run a different test at the same time. Each subtest is
written to handle a single test pass and all test variables are kept track of in a
structure unique for each drive. However, when testing IDE drives, FDAT will not
perform simultaneous testing of IDE drives that are attached to the same IDE
cable. For example, if FDAT is testing four IDE drives on a PC, it will perform
simultaneous testing on drives 1 and 3 first (master drives), then perform tests on
2 and 4 (slave drives). FDAT will also perform simultaneous testing on a master
and slave that are on separate IDE cables, but will not perform simultaneous tests
on a master and slave on the same IDE cable. This generally increases the amount
of time needed to test multiple IDE drives.
Another limitation of FDAT’S multitasking capability is the use of Ultra DMA
(UDMA). Only one drive at a time can access the UDMA channel and the UDMA
channel buffer must be kept high in order to maintain a speed advantage over
other data transfer modes. In order to use the UDMA channel during testing, users
must disable the multitasking feature.
Destructive vs non-destructive testing:
Most of the tests found in FDAT are non-destructive. This means that PCDR will
preserve any data that is present on the tested media prior to beginning any
destructive operations (i.e. write operations). However, users can run certain tests
Chapter 4. IBM Enhanced Diagnostics 17
in destructive mode (i.e. surface scan tests). Destructive tests will speed up testing
because FDAT does not preserve the data on the media prior to the test beginning.
Unlike non-destructive tests, any data present on the media prior to the test
beginning is lost. FDAT allows for enabling or disabling destructive tests, as well
as specifying a range of destructive and non-destructive sectors on the tested drive.
This is done through the configuration of the FDAT.INI. If destructive and
non-destructive ranges somehow overlap, then the overlapped area is considered
non-destructive. For example, if users specify both destructive and non-destructive
ranges as the same, then the entire drive is tested as non-destructive.
Quick and Full erase - hard drive
The Diagnostics program offers two hard drive format utilities:
v Performs all the steps in Quick Erase.
v Provides a DOS utility that writes random data to all sectors of the hard drive.
v Provide an estimate of time to completion along with a visual representation of
completion status.
v Provides messagesthatwarntheuseraboutnon-recoverableprocess.
Important: Make surethatalldataisbackedupbeforeusingtheQuickorFullErase
functions.
To select the Quick Erase or Full Erase Hard Drive utility, use the following
procedure.
Errors reported by the diagnostic test will be displayed by the program as a failed
test.
To view details of a failure or to view a list of test results, use the following
procedure from any test category screen.
v Press F3 to activate the log file.
v Press F3 again to save the file to diskette or F2 to print the file.

Viewing and changing settings
The IBM Setup Utility program menu lists items that identify system configuration
topics.
When working with the IBM Setup Utility program menu, you must use the
keyboard. The keys used to perform various tasks are displayed at the bottom of
each screen.
When you finish viewing or changing settings, press Esc to return to the IBM
Setup Utility program menu (you might have to press Esc several times). If you
want to save the new settings, select Save Settings or Save and exit the Setup Utility. Otherwise,yourchangeswillnotbesaved.
Using passwords
The use of passwords provide security for the computer and data. There are two
kinds of passwords: a user password and an administrator password. You do not
have to set a password of either type to use the computer. However, if you decide
to set either one, read the following sections.
User password
The user password feature deters unauthorized persons from gaining access to the
computer.
Administrator password
Setting an administrator password deters unauthorized persons from changing
configuration settings. If you are responsible for maintaining the settings of several
computers, you might want to set an administrator password.
After you set an administrator password, a password prompt is displayed each
time you try to access the IBM Setup Utility program. If you type the wrong
password, you will see an error message. If you type the wrong password three
times, you must turn the computer off and start again.
If both the user and administrator passwords are set, you can type either
password. However, to change any configuration settings, you must use your
administrator password.
Setting, changing, and deleting a password
To set, change, or delete a password, do the following:
Note: A passwordcanbeanycombinationofuptosevencharacters(A-Z,a-z,

POST error codes
Each time you power-on the system, it performs a series of tests that check the
operation of the system and some options. This series of tests is called the
Power-OnSelf-Test, orPOST. POSTdoesthefollowingoperations.
v Checks some basic system-board operations
v Checks the memory operation
v Starts the video operation
v Verifies that the diskette drive is working
v Verifies that the hard disk drive is working
If the POST detects a problem, an error message appears on the screen. A single
problem can cause several error messages to appear. When you correct the cause of
the first error message, the other error messages probably will not appear on the
screen the next time you turn on the system.
In the following index, X can represent any number.
