The ePSA diagnostics
(also known as system diagnostics) performs a complete check of your
hardware. The ePSA is embedded with the BIOS and is launched by the
BIOS internally. The embedded system diagnostics provides a set of
options for particular devices or device groups allowing you to:
- Run tests automatically or in an interactive mode
- Repeat tests
- Display or save test results
- Run thorough tests to introduce additional test options to provide
extra information about the failed device(s)
- View status messages that inform you if tests are completed successfully
- View error messages that inform you of problems encountered during
testing
-
CAUTION: Use the system diagnostics to test only your computer. Using this
program with other computers may cause invalid results or error messages.
-
NOTE: Some tests for
specific devices require user interaction. Always ensure that you
are present at the computer terminal when the diagnostic tests are
performed.
