5. Type in the following, and then press Enter: filename x: where filename is the
name of the file you downloaded from the Web, and x is the letter of the
diskette drive containing the blank diskette.
The downloaded file is self-extracting and will be copied to the diskette. When the
copy completes, you have a startable IBM Enhanced Diagnostics diskette.
Starting the diagnostic programs and viewing the test log
The test log records data about system failures and other pertinent information. The
test log will not contain any information until after the diagnostic program has run.
Note: If you already are running the diagnostic program, begin with step 4.
Complete the following steps to start the diagnostic programs and view the test log:
1. Insert the IBM Enhanced Diagnostics diskette or the Device Drivers and IBM
Enhanced Diagnostics CD.
2. Shut down the operating system and restart the computer.
3. If a user password is set, the system prompts you for it. Type the password,
and press Enter.
4. Run the appropriate diagnostics program and when the Diagnostic Programs
screen appears, select Utility .
5. Select View Test Log from the list that appears; then follow the instructions on
the screen.
6. Save the test log to a file on a diskette or to the hard disk.
Notes:
a. To save the test log to a diskette, you must use a diskette that you have
formatted yourself; this function does not work with preformatted diskettes. If
the diskette has sufficient space for the test log, the diskette may contain
other data.
b. The system maintains the test-log data while the system is turned on. When
you turn off the power to the computer, the test log is cleared.
Diagnostic error message tables
For descriptions of the error messages that might appear when you run the
diagnostic programs, see “Diagnostic error codes” on page 97.
Notes:
1. Depending on the configuration, some of the error messages might not appear
when you run the diagnostic programs.
2. If diagnostic error messages appear that are not listed in the tables, make sure
that the computer has the latest level of BIOS code installed.
PC-Doctor for Windows
®
The computer contains PC-Doctor for Windows, which is designed specifically for
the Windows operating environment. Because these diagnostics work with the
operating system, they test hardware and analyze certain software components.
These diagnostic programs are especially useful for isolating operating-system and
device-driver problems.
