HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI)
HP PC Hardware Diagnostics is a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) that allows you to run diagnostic tests to determine whether the tablet hardware is functioning properly. The tool runs outside the operating system so that it can isolate hardware failures from issues that are caused by the operating system or other software components.
To start HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI using the touchscreen:
1. Shut down the tablet if it is not already powered off
2. To power on the tablet, press the Power button, and then press the Volume down button.
3. Select System Diagnostics.
4. Select the type of diagnostic test that you want to run, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
To start HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI using a keyboard:
1. Turn on or restart the tablet, quickly press the ESC button on the tablet, and then press f2.
The BIOS searches three places for the diagnostic tools, in the following order:
a. Connected USB drive
b. Hard drive
c. BIOS
2. When the diagnostic tool opens, use the keyboard arrow keys to select the type of diagnostic test you want to run, and then follow the on-screen instructions
