Appendix B

Performing System Diagnostics

This appendix describes how to use the System diagnostics

program to test the condition of your computer’s main unit and

peripheral devices. The diagnostics program provides tests to

check the following hardware:

System board

Memory

Hard disk drive(s)

Diskette drive(s)

Keyboard

Video adapter and monitor

Parallel and serial ports.

By changing settings on the System diagnostics main menu,

you can run the tests in several different ways. You can specify

a certain length of time to run a test, select to run it

continuously until you interrupt it, or specify a number of

times to run the test.

If an error occurs during a test, note the error message and

contact your Epson dealer. Your dealer may be able to solve the

problem; if not, see “Where to Get Help” in the Introduction for

technical support information.
