The diagnostic programs create a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to Lenovo service and support. Additionally, you can view the information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to a removable media and view the log from a Web browser.

For additional information about preboot diagnostics, see “Running the diagnostic programs” on page 90.
