Using Compaq Diagnostics for Windows
The Compaq Diagnostics utility includes 2 system scans:
■
Compaq Configuration Record compares the notebook
configuration at the time Compaq Diagnostics was installed
to interim or current configurations.
■
Compaq Diagnostics provides more complete information
about your current configuration as well as options for testing
components.
Both Compaq Diagnostics scans are designed to report on
Compaq components. If non-Compaq components are scanned,
the results may be inconclusive.
