Using Advanced System Diagnostics
Advanced System Diagnostics allows you to run diagnostic tests to determine if the computer hardware
is functioning properly. The following diagnostic tests are available in Advanced System Diagnostics:
●
Start-up test—This test analyzes the main computer components that are required to start the
computer.
●
Run-in test—This test repeats the start-up test and checks for intermittent problems that the start-up
test does not detect.
●
System Tune-Up—This group of additional tests checks your computer to make sure that the main
components are functioning correctly. System Tune-Up runs longer and more comprehensive tests
on memory modules, hard drive SMART attributes, the hard drive surface, the battery (and battery
calibration), video memory, and the WLAN module status.
●
Hard disk test—This test analyzes the physical condition of the hard drive, and then checks all
data in every sector of the hard drive. If the test detects a damaged sector, it attempts to move the
data to a good sector.
