Regarding the PC-Diagnostic Utility

NOTE

Run this utility using the default settings in the Setup Utility. If the Setup Utility or other settings will not allow a hard- ware to be executed, the hardware icon will be displayed in gray.

For the hard disk and memory only, you can select standard diagnostic check or extended diagnostic check.

When the PC-Diagnostic Utility starts up, it will run the standard diagnostic check. The extended diagnostic check is more detailed, and so requires a longer period of time to run.

When the video diagnostic check is running, the display may be distorted, and when the audio diagnostic check is running, sounds may be generated from the speakers. These are not malfunctions.

You can check the status of the diagnostic check by the display color (A) on the left side of the hardware icon. Aqua: Not running diagnostic check

Alternating blue and yellow: Currently running diagnostic check. The interval of the alternating colors dif- fers depending on the type of diagnostic check currently running. During memory diagnostic check, the display may freeze for a long period of time. Wait until the process A is complete.

Green: No problems discovered

Red: Problems discovered
