Running System Diagnostics
You can validate the integrity of your system with the Run Diagnostics command.
This command checks the main board functions subsystems (memory, intra-board
communications, console switch control, and the video channels) for each system
controller. When you select Run Diagnostics, you receive a warning indicating that
all users (remote and local) will be disconnected. Click OK to confirm and begin
the test.
Running Diagnostics Test
To run diagnostics tests:
1. Press the Print Scrn key. The Main dialog box is displayed.
