ard-Disk–Based Diagnostics
The hard-disk–based diagnostics contains tests that aid in troubleshooting all
major components of the computer. If it is not possible to run the server-based
diagnostics, or if the server-based diagnostics fails to reveal the source of a sus-
pected hardware problem, run the hard-disk–based diagnostics by following
these steps:
1. Turn on (or reboot) the system.
2. Press <Ctrl><Alt><F10> immediately after you see the following
message:
Press <Ctrl><Alt><Enter> for Setup
If you wait too long and the operating system begins to load into memory,
let the system complete the load operation; then shut down the system and
try again.
Starting the diagnostics causes the Dell logo to appear on the monitor
screen, followed by a message indicating that the diagnostics is loading.
Before the diagnostics loads, a program tests the portion of main memory
(RAM) required for loading the diagnostics. If a main memory error is
detected, a message indicates which DIMM has failed. If no errors are found
in main memory, the diagnostics loads and the Diagnostics Menu appears.
