Overview of the Basic System Test

Overview of the Basic System Test
The basic system test is performed after hardware detection. The
purpose of the basic system tests is to verify the correct operation of
the PC's hardware. For each detected hardware component, the test
will confirm that:
The component is powered-on
•
The component has been initialized for use
•
The component is operating correctly under MS-DOS.
•
Unlike the advanced system tests, the basic system test is done
automatically and no user input or guidance is needed. This test phase
is suitable for all types of users, including novice and non-technical
users.
Most of the PC's components are tested during the basic system test.
To test all of the PC's components, use the advanced systems tests.
