configuration, which may be necessary when you add or remove
hardware.
To determine if all of the devices installed on the workstation are
recognized by the system and functioning properly.
To determine information about the operating environment of the
workstation.
To solve system configuration errors detected but not automatically
fixed during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).
