drive(s). The computer displays:
Test the FDD (Y/N)?

bypass the test, type
The FDD (floppy disk drive) test checks the internal diskette
drive, and the external drive if you have one. Attach the exter-
nal drive before running this test.
The test writes test patterns on any diskette in the drive. These
patterns destroy all information on the diskette(s). Make sure
there is no information you want to keep on the diskette(s)
you use.
If you choose the FDD test, you must format and write enable
these diskettes before the test. For 3.5inch diskettes, move the
write-protect tab to cover the square hole.
The next prompt asks if you want to test the hard disk drive:
