Diagnostic Aids 3-3
4. If no keyboard keys are pressed, and if POST is completed without errors,
the system will then proceed with the loading of DOS or other operating
system from diskette drive A or a hard disk drive or CD-ROM drive,
depending on the options selected in the Setup Utility.
If any errors are detected by POST, there will be an error message
accompanied with an error code shown on display screen and a beep.
See “Index of Symptoms, Messages, Error Codes, or Beeps” on page 2-8
to find the most likely cause and countermeasure.
Diagnostic Diskette
WARNING: This manual is intended to test the IBM Aptiva 2153 and 2139
machine type only. Testing devices which are not included with the
original product package, including other IBM products, prototype
cards, or modifying hardware settings may give false errors and
invalid system responses. The diagnostics not specifically made for
this model may also report incorrect errors and information.
The diagnostics program comes on a diskette along with this book. This
version of PC-Doctor diagnostics program, developed by Watergate for IBM,
is the primary method of testing the computer. You can use it to test the IBM
components of the system and some external devices. The amount of time
required to test components depends on the number of components installed
and selected. The more devices you have attached to your system and
selected in PC-Doctor, the longer the testing will take.
NOTE: The diagnostics program for Aptiva 2153 and 2139 are the same.
Using the Diagnostic Diskette
1. Power-off the system unit.
2. Insert diagnostic diskette in drive A.
3. Power-on the system unit.
NOTE: Do not press F1 during POST. If any POST errors appear after
POST, make a note of the errors and see “Index of Symptoms,
Messages, Error Codes, or Beeps” on page 2-8 to diagnose.
4. DOS should load. During boot, verify that each driver loads successfully.
For drivers that do not load successfully, verify that the device driver is
associated with it and is installed properly.
5. Diagnostics program (PC-Doctor) will load, then follow the screen
instructions to operate.
