3.32 Maintenance (WinPE&FreeDos) Test Program Operation

3.32.1 . Outline

This document explains how to operate T&D that is released through TOSHIBA Test & Diagnostic CD.

3.32.2 Outline of Specification

The TOSHIBA Test & Diagnostic CD already released includes WindowsPE T&D (hereafter, referred as WinPE T&D) and Freedos T&D (hereafter, referred as Fdos T&D) and either of the T&D programs can be activated by multiboot support.

3.32.2.1 Outline of WindowsPE T&D

WinPE T&D operates on the Windows PE2.0 operating system. If the CD is booted, the operating system WindowsPE is extracted to the RAM disk in the system memory and operates on it. (At this time, the drive is drive X:.)

T&D functionally consists of display of system information, execution of each test and various utilities, whose test items support only tests which can be commonly used on each model. T&D also allows you in some models to use the multitasking functions which execute the stress test and each test never been included in it, as multitasks.

3.32.2.2 Outline of Freedos T&D

Freedos T&D is extracted as image on the CD and operates on the CD drive.

Also, if Freedos T&D can conduct a test such as the conventional memory test that cannot be done by WinPE T&D. The test items include only tests that can be commonly used on each model like WinPE T&D.
