NOTE: For the full name of an abbreviation or acronym used in this table, see the Glossary.
NOTE: The options displayed on your system are dependent on your system configu-
ration and may not include all of those listed here.
The system diagnostics can be run from the utility partition or from a diskette, but not
from the Dell Server Assistant CD. From the Utility Partition menu, select Run Sys-
tem Utilities and then select Run System Diagnostics. To run the diagnostics from
a diskette, select Create Diagnostics Diskette from the Utility Partition menu.
Before running the diagnostics, you should make a blank diskette and insert it in the
diskette drive so the diagnostics programs can record critical messages and informa-
tion as necessary. Use the Create Blank Formatted Diskette option to create a
formatted diskette. The system hardware diagnostics are described in Chapter 5,
"Running the Dell Diagnostics," of the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide .
NOTES: The ATI video for the Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 operating system
must be set up with a resolution of 640 x 480 at installation.
Windows NT Server 4.0 Service Pack 3 must be installed to use the updated drivers
for ATI video.
You need to install the video drivers for the operating system you install on your
PowerEdge 6350 system, unless they were installed by Dell. Use the following proce-
dure to install the video drivers for Windows NT Server 4.0. The Novell NetWare
operating system provides a textual interface and does not require video drivers.
