You may conduct a Quick, Complete, or Custom test. If you
choose the Quick test, it can be run in either the interactive or
unattended mode.
Complete or Custom tests are completed only in the Interactive
mode, since they test the audio and video components of your
Presario Notebook. You must be present to confirm the test
results. Complete testing takes approximately 10 minutes.
