General Description 1-13 Figure 1-5 Installing PCMCIA Card Options 1.3 Standard Test Features The Extensa 60x and 65x Series Notebook Computers use modular design and built- in test features to reduce the mean time to repair. A power on self test program automatically verifies the operational state of the primary circuits and a powerful suite of diagnostic tests (known as PC-Doctor) are available to further test selected parts of the system. 1.3.1 Power On Self Test The Extensa line of notebook computers contain a BIOS-resident, Power On Self Test (POST) that automatically performs a test of memory and all major circuits each time the computer is powered up. In the event of a failure, the computer displays a descriptive error message and issues a series of coded beeps (in case the display subsystem is not functioning). If self test completes normally, the computer displays the amount of memory tested, loads the Operating System and Windows environment. 1.3.2 PC-Doctor Diagnostics Program The Extensa 60x and 65x Series Notebooks are shipped with PC-Doctor for Windows, a powerful diagnostics tool that can help you scan a system for viruses, determine the hardware configuration of a local or remote system, benchmark its performance, analyze the performance of all subsystems, and perform a suite of interactive and non- interactive tests on attached devices (such as printers, joystick devices, VGA monitors, SCSI devices, CD-ROM drives). The test results are stored in a log which can be printed out (by pressing F2) or saved in a disk file (by pressing F3).

1-14 General Description Features of the diagnostic program are accessed through a series of pull-down menus and basic keyboard keys (cursor keys to move highlighted pointer, Enter key to select a highlighted feature, Esc key to cancel a function and move back one level. PC-Doctor is typically user friendly but if you dont understand a feature, context- sensitive help information is available at any time by pressing the F1 function key; pressing the F1 function key twice accesses the online Technical Reference Manual for PC-Doctor. A powerful set of utilities within PC-Doctor (that can be run locally or remotely) simplify the task of determining system configuration data, allocating and using system memory, IRQ and DMA use, what device drivers are installed, what COM and LP T ports are assigned and what ports are available, identifying partitioning data for fixed disk drive(s), determining the VGA setup information, reading the software interrupts/ interrupt vectors, etc. Note: Refer to the Troubleshooting Section (Section 5) for additional information regarding the Diagnostics Program. 1.4 International Product Models The Extensa 60x and 65x Series Notebooks are available in various international configurations as listed in Table 1-7. The Models 600, 600CD, and 650CDT Dual Load systems are also available with localized software.
