IPDT version: 1.29.0.0.MP (64Bit) ===== Installation and setup ===== Refer to the Operating System specific User Guide for information on installation and setup. ===== Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool Test System Requirements ===== Multiprocessors Systems The Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool is compatible with multiprocessor systems. It is essential that only one Intel® processor is tested at a time in this system configuration. Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool does not support multiple processors inserted into a multiprocessor system configuration. Motherboard & Processor It is essential that the motherboard you use to test your processor is fully compatible with your Intel® processor. Consult your motherboard manufacturer’s support to ensure the motherboard supports your processor. If you are using an Intel® Motherboard please use this utility Intel® Processors and Boards Compatibility Tool Motherboard BIOS It is essential that the motherboards BIOS is at the minimum BIOS revision specified to support your Intel® processor. Consult your motherboard manufacturer’s support to ensure the BIOS revision is at the correct revision. Motherboard Architecture IPDT is only compatible with motherboards built using Intel® Architecture. Over-Clocking Over-Clocking should be disabled while running Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool. Power Management Some power management features (e.g. Intel SpeedStep® technology) throttle or reduce the operating frequency of components within the system. These types of power management features may result in very low tested frequency results. This does not mean that the processor is operating at degraded performance levels. It means that the enabled power management feature is optimizing the efficiency of the processor, either to save power or reduce heat within the system. We recommend you disable any power management features such as Intel SpeedStep® technology and configure your system to its optimal power management settings, when running Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool. For instructions on how to disable these power management features, please contact your system manufacturer. ===== Operating Systems ===== The Windows® version of the Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool is compatible with the following operating systems Please download and install the relevant IPDT installer for your Operating System – 32Bit or 64Bit): * Windows XP SP3 * Windows Server 2003 SP2 * Windows Vista SP1 or later * Windows Server 2008 (not supported on Server Core Role) * Windows 7 * Windows Server 2008 R2 (not supported on Server Core Role) * Windows 7 SP1 * Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 * Windows 8 * Windows Server 2012 ===== Software Required ===== IPDT 32 Bit Software Requirements * The New 2D Rotation test requires that the driver for the specific platform configuration be installed: - The Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile or - Intel HD Graphics http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel915g/sb/CS-011363.htm * Microsoft® Visual C++ 2010 SP1 (x86) Runtime Libraries.
