Chapter 5. Diagnostics

Diagnostic programs are used to test hardware components of your computer and report operating-system-controlled settings that can cause hardware failures. There are two diagnostic programs preinstalled on your computer:

•Lenovo System Toolbox (used to diagnose problems while running the Windows operating system)

•PC-Doctor for Windows PE (used when your Windows operating system does not start)

Notes:

1.You can also download the latest version of the Lenovo System Toolbox and PC-Doctor for DOS diagnostic programs from: http://www.lenovo.com/support

2.If you are unable to isolate and repair the problem yourself after you run Lenovo System Toolbox and PC-Doctor for Windows PE, save and print the log files created by both diagnostic programs. You will need the log files when you speak to a Lenovo technical support representative. (The log file created by Lenovo System Toolbox is automatically saved in C:\PCDR\DETAILED.txt.)
