When to Use the Dell Diagnostics

If you experience a problem with your computer, perform the checks in "Solving Problems"
in your User's Guide and run the Dell Diagnostics before you contact Dell for technical
assistance. Running the Dell Diagnostics may help you resolve the problem without
contacting Dell. If you do contact Dell, the test results can provide important information
for Dell's service and support personnel.

• Perform tests on one or all devices.
• Select tests based on a symptom of the problem you are having.
• Choose how many times a test is run.

• Access help information that describes the tests and devices.
