Diagnostic Diskette
WARNING: This manual is intended to test the IBM Aptiva 2174 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 2174 are the same.
