Testing the Operation
The OmniBook hardware diagnostic program provides two levels of testing:
•
Automated testing using the basic hardware test.
•
Advanced testing using the individual hardware tests.
You can run the OmniBook hardware diagnostic program from the OmniBook
Hibernation partition on the hard disk or from a floppy disk. The tests are
designed to run after the system reboots. This ensures that the computer will be
in a predictable state, so the diagnostic program can properly test the hardware
components. The tests are non-destructive and are intended to preserve the
state of the computer. The OmniBook reboots when you exit the program so
drivers can be loaded.
To create a diagnostic floppy disk
After inserting a formatted floppy disk in the floppy drive, do one of the
following to create a diagnostic floppy disk:
•
On an OmniBook with a factory software installation, run DIAGINST
from the \DMI\HPDIAGS directory on the hard disk.
–or–
If HP TopTools is installed, use the DiagTools page to create the disk.
•
On any computer with World Wide Web access, download the OmniBook
Hardware Diagnostic software package from the OmniBook website
(http://www.hp.com/omnibook), run this file to unpack the files, then run
DIAGINST to create the diagnostic disk.
