and
other
pertinent
information.
The

the
hard
disk.
Notes:
a.
To
save
the
test
log
to
a
diskette,
you
must
use
a
diskette
that
you
have
formatted
yourself;
this
function
does
not
work
with
preformatted
diskettes.
If
the
diskette
has
sufficient
space
for
the
test
log,
the
diskette
can
contain
other
data.
b.
The
system
maintains
the
test-log
data
only
while
the
Enhanced
Diagnostics
program
is
running.
When
you
end
the
Enhanced
Diagnostics
program,
the
test
log
is
cleared.
If
the
diagnostic
programs
do
not
detect
any
hardware
errors
but
the
problem
remains
during
normal
computer
operations,
a
software
error
might
be
the
cause.
If
you
suspect
a
software
problem,
see
the
information
that
comes
with
your
software.
A
single
problem
might
cause
more
than
one
error
message.
When
this
happens,
correct
the
cause
of
the
first
error
message.
The
other
error
messages
usually
will
not
occur
the
next
time
you
run
the
diagnostic
programs.
Exception:
If
there
are
multiple
error
codes
that
indicate
a
microprocessor
error,
the
error
might
be
in
a
microprocessor
or
in
a
microprocessor
socket.
See
for
information
about
diagnosing
microprocessor
problems.
If
the
computer
stops
during
testing
and
you
cannot
continue,
restart
the
computer
and
try
running
the
diagnostic
programs
again.
If
the
problem
remains,
replace
the
component
that
was
being
tested
when
the
computer
stopped.
