•
Obtain a complete hardware configuration.

For more information about this utility, refer to the Vectra\Kayak
Hardware Diagnostics User's Guide, available on the HP web site in PDF
(Adobe Acrobat) format.
HP DiagTools is available from the following sources:
•
Utility partition on the hard disk drive.
•
Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM delivered with your computer.
•
HP DiagTools CD-ROM obtained from the HP web site at
http://www.hp.com/desktops/diagtools
Decide how you are going to run the diagnostics utility: using either the
utility partition on the hard disk drive or one of the CD-ROM options. It is
recommended that you check the following settings in the Setup program:
In the Main setup menu, the item to select the operating system (PnP
O/S) is set to "No". This should be set whether you have a plug-and-play
(for example, Windows 95 and Windows 98) operating system or not
(Windows NT 4.0 is a non plug-and-play system).
If you are running the diagnostics from a CD-ROM, then the following
settings must also be checked.
In the Security menu, set all Hardware Protection items to "Enabled" or
"Unlocked" (if applicable). Ensure also that Booting from the CD-ROM
is enabled.
In the Boot menu, the CD-ROM drive is configured to boot before the
hard disk drive in the Boot Device Priority List.
You will need the Administrator password to make any changes to the
above settings. It is also recommended that you make a note of any changes
to the Setup program.
