1. Select the DIAGNOSTICS option on the toolbar and
press Enter.
2. Highlight either the 'Memory Test-Full' or 'Memory
Test-Quick option and press Enter.
Memory Test-Full
The full memory test will take about 80 seconds per
MB of memory and will detect marginal, intermittent,
and solid (stuck) memory failures.
Memory Test-Quick
The quick memory test will take about 20 seconds per
MB of memory and will detect solid (stuck) memory
failures only.
Notes
Either level of memory testing can be performed on all
memory or a single RIMM socket.
Only sockets containing a RIMM can be selected for
testing. C-RIMM sockets are noted by ........ besides
the test description.
Alert On LAN test
The Alert On LAN test does the following:
Determines if Alert On LAN is supported on the
system.
Checks the revision ID register.
Verifies the EEPROM checksum.
Validates that a software alert can be sent.
Asset ID test
The Asset ID test does the following:
Determines if Asset ID is supported on the system.
Verifies the EEPROM areas.
Performs an antenna detection test.
Test results
IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostic test results will produce this
error code format:
Function Code: Represents the feature or function
within the PC.
Failure Type: Represents the type of error
encountered.
DeviceID: Contains the component's unit-id which
corresponds to either a fixed disk drive,
removable media drive, serial or
parallel port, processor, specific RIMM,
or a device on the PCI bus.
