How do I run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics on the HP Z240 Tower Workstation?
Turn on the computer and press Esc repeatedly until the BIOS Boot Menu appears, then press F2 or select Diagnostics (F2). The system will search for diagnostics first on a connected USB drive, then on the hard disk drive, and finally from a core set of diagnostics built into the BIOS. When a hardware failure is detected, a 24-digit Failure ID is generated that can be provided to a support agent to schedule repairs or obtain replacement parts. (Page 27)
