Overview of Hardware Detection

Hardware detection determines which tests are appropriate for your
PC. For example, if your PC has a IDE or SCSI hard disk drive, the boot
sector of the hard disk drive will be checked as part of the basic system
test.

In the advanced tests, some functions will be disabled if they are not
appropriate for your PC. For example, if you do not have a SCSI
controller, the

SCSI

menu in the advanced tests will be disabled.

During Hardware Detection

The following screen appears during hardware detection:

NOTE

Hardware detection may be so fast that this screen simply flickers on
and off, without giving you time to read it. This is normal. The time
required for hardware detection varies greatly between the different
systems and different configurations.
