Diagnostic programs
Diagnostic programs are used to test hardware components of your computer and
report operating-system-controlled settings that can cause hardware failures. There
are two diagnostic programs preinstalled on your computer to help you diagnose
problems: PC-Doctor for Windows and PC-Doctor for DOS.
Notes:
1. You can download the latest version of the diagnostic programs from
http://www.lenovo.com/support/. Type your machine type into the Use
Quick Path field and click Go to find the downloadable files that are specific to
your computer.
2. If you are unable to isolate and repair the problem yourself after you run
PC-Doctor for Windows and PC-Doctor for DOS, save and print the log files
created by both diagnostic programs. You will need the log files when you
speak to a Lenovo technical support representative. (The log file created by
PC-Doctor for Windows is automatically saved in C:\PCDR\DETAILED.TXT.)
