Diagnostics

Computers with the Windows 95 operating system installed have PC Care
diagnostics software factory installed on the hard disk drive. Use this software to
troubleshoot the computer.

Computers with the Window NT Workstation operating system have factory installed
software that includes an Administrative Tools group in the Program Manager menu.
This program group includes a Windows NT Diagnostics icon for launching the
Diagnostic software.  Use this software to troubleshoot the computer.

Users can use the diagnostic diskettes to examine the computer’s current
configuration and locate faulty configurations.  Users can also use the software on the
diagnostics diskettes to troubleshoot the computer.

To access the diagnostic software:

1.

Insert the "For Emergency Use" diskette you received into the diskette drive
and then type:

A:\AMIDIAG

2.

If you are unable to boot from the hard disk drive, you can instead boot
directly from the "For Emergency Use" diskette.

3.

Once the program begins, follow the instructions displayed on the monitor
screen.

Refer to the README file on the "For Emergency Use" diskette for additional information.
