Create a Diagnostics Diskette

This option allows you to create both Setup or Diagnostics diskettes from the
diagnostics partition. To create the diskettes:
1. Turn on or restart the workstation. If Windows NT is running, click
Start, Shut Down, Restart the computer.
Immediately after the workstation completes Power-On Self-Test
(POST), which is indicated on the screen by the memory check, the
system beeps twice and the cursor moves to the upper-right corner of the
screen.
2. Press F10 as soon as you see the words "F10=Setup" in the bottom-
right corner of the screen.
3. If prompted, select the desired language.
4. Press Enter to bypass the Welcome to Compaq Utilities screen.
5. From the Compaq Utilities menu, select Create a Diagnostics Diskette.
One diagnostic and two setup diskettes will be created.
NOTE: The Diagnostics and Setup diskettes can also be created by
downloading the latest version from the Compaq website at
http://www.compaq.com.

Manage a Diagnostics Partition

This option allows you to create, delete, or upgrade the diagnostics software on
the workstation. This must be performed from a diagnostics diskette.

CAUTION: Creating a diagnostics partition involves
repartitioning the hard drive. Normally, this is only done to add
diagnostics to a new replacement hard drive. If the diagnostics
software is deleted, you will no longer be able to access the
Compaq Utilities menu.
