Advanced Testing Help Menu - Dell OptiPlex GX50 User Manual

NOTE:
The groups and
devices listed in your
screen can vary somewhat
based on the components
installed in your
computer.
NOTE: The diagnostics
may not list in the Device
Groups area the names of
all components or devices
that are part of your
computer. For example, it
may not list a printer even
though it is connected to
your computer. However,
the parallel port to which
the printer is connected
appears in the Device
Groups list. You can test
your printer connection in
the Parallel Ports tests.
NOTE: The options
displayed on your screen
should reflect the
hardware configuration of
your computer.
