Testing Your Workstation
Run the System Self-Test
When the system unit completes the power-up self-test and the
console prompt (>>) appears on the screen, type test and press
Return.
This causes the workstation to run its system self-test. As the
system performs the subtests that make up the system self-test,
the subtest being performed is briefly identified in a display in
the lower-left corner of your monitor screen.
When all tests have been completed successfully, the console
prompt (>>) appears on the lower-left corner of your screen.
If a self-test fails or if there is no display on the monitor
When the system self-test is completed, any error messages
that have been generated appear in the lower-left corner of the
screen above the console prompt (>>).
If any messages appear along with the console prompt (>>),
or if no display appears on the monitor, turn to Chapter 9 for
a discussion of error messages both on the screen and on the
diagnostic indicator lights on the system unit.
