hp e-diagtools hardware diagnostics

Your system came with an HP IPF Offline Diagnostics and Utilities
CD with HP e-DiagTools Hardware Diagnostics. These tools may be
used to diagnose hardware-related problems on your HP system.

Before contacting HP for Warranty service, run e-DiagTools to obtain
information that will be requested by a Support Agent.

With this utility you can:

Check the hardware configuration and verify that it is functioning
correctly.

Test individual hardware components.

Diagnose hardware-related problems.

Obtain a complete hardware configuration.

Provide precise information to an HP support agent so they can
solve problems quickly and effectively.

HP e-DiagTools provides a user-friendly interface to the Offline
Diagnostics Environment (ODE)
, that enables you to troubleshoot a
system that is running without an OS or cannot be tested using the
online tools. ODE can also be run separately using a command line
interface, which allows the user to select specific tests and/or utilities
to execute on a specific hardware module. See the hp rx2600/zx6000
Operation and Maintenance Guide
for more information.
