The system diagnostics can be run from the utility partition or from a separate
Dell
Diagnostics Diskette
provided with your system (the
Dell Diagnostics Diskette
has the
latest diagnostics tests). From the Utility Partition menu, select Run System Utili-
ties and then select Run System Diagnostics.
Before running the diagnostics, you should make a blank diskette and insert it in the
diskette drive so the diagnostics programs can record critical messages and informa-
tion as necessary. Use the Create Blank Formatted Diskette option to create a
formatted diskette. The system hardware diagnostics are described in Chapter 5,
Running the Dell Diagnostics, of the
Installation and Troubleshooting Guide
.
