Diagnosing problems
Use the following procedure as a guide for diagnosing notebook problems.
1
Obtain the failing symptoms in as much detail as possible.

Verify the symptoms by attempting to re-create the failure by running the
diagnostic test or by repeating the same operation.
3
Use the following table with the verified symptom to determine which page

The diagnostic tests are intended to test only Acer products. Non-Acer
products, prototype cards, or modified options can give false errors and invalid
system responses.
