Accessing Diagnostic Tools
The Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD contains the SmartStart
program and many of the Compaq utilities needed to maintain your system,
including:
■ System Configuration Utility
■ Array Configuration Utility
■ Array Diagnostic Utility
■ ROMPaq Firmware Upgrade Utilities
■ Compaq Diagnostics
CAUTION: Do not select the Erase Utility when running the SmartStart and
Support Software CD. This results in data and configuration setup loss to the
entire system, and all connected peripherals.
There are several ways to access these utilities.
Run from System Partition
If the system was installed using SmartStart, most Compaq utilities are
available on the system partition automatically. The system partition could
also have been created during a manual system installation.
To run utilities found on the system partition, boot the system and press
F10
when you see the following message:
Press F10 for system partition utilities.
Select the utilities from the menu.
■ System Configuration Utility is available under the System
Configuration menu.
■ Array Configuration Utility is available under the System Configuration
menu.
■ Compaq Diagnostics (Test and Inspect) are available under the
Diagnostics and Utilities Menu.
