PC-Doctor Diagnostics
C.1 Introduction
The TM5000 Series Notebooks are shipped with PC-Doctor, a powerful
diagnostics tool that can help you determine the hardware configuration of
a local or remote system, benchmark its performance, analyze the
performance of all subsystems, and perform a suite of interactive and
non-interactive tests on attached devices (such as printers, joystick devices,
VGA monitors, SCSI devices, CD-ROM drives). The test results are stored in
a log which can be printed out (by pressing F2) or saved in a disk file (by
pressing F3).
Features of the diagnostic program are accessed through a series of
pull-down menus and basic keyboard keys (cursor keys to move highlighted
pointer, Enter key to select a highlighted feature, ESC key to cancel a
function and move back one level.)
PC-Doctor is typically user friendly but if you don’t understand a feature,
context-sensitive "help" information is available at any time by pressing the
F1 function key; pressing the F1 function key twice accesses the online
Technical Reference Manual for PC-Doctor.
A powerful set of utilities within PC-Doctor (that can be run locally or
remotely) simplify the task of determining system configuration data,
allocating and using system memory, IRQ and DMA use, what device drivers
are installed, what COM and LPT ports are assigned and what ports are
available, identifying partitioning data for fixed disk drive(s), determining
the VGA setup information, reading the software interrupts/interrupt
vectors, etc.
C.2 Starting PC-Doctor
PC-Doctor comes pre-installed on your TravelMate 5000 Series Notebook
Computer. To run the utility, reboot your computer.
The system continues the boot process and automatically displays the
PC-Doctor Diagnostics main menu.
