personnel to view information about the hardware configuration of the computer and perform hardware
troubleshooting on HP Workstation and Desktop systems. Booted from either DVD/CD or USB flash
key, these diagnostics run outside the operating system and make it easier to isolate potential issues
and determine hardware failures.
HP Vision Diagnostics provides:
