[Prior Art] With the continuous development of communication technology and the constant change of consumer demand, many electronic devices are constantly seeking new changes in their functions. Accordingly, various hardware components in electronic devices such as computer devices More and more abundant, and the number is getting more and more. Once one of the hardware components fails, and the maintenance personnel is not sure which hardware component is faulty, the whole computer equipment can only be disassembled and hardwareized one by one. The fault detection and elimination procedures of the components increase the difficulty of maintenance and seriously waste the troubleshooting time. At present, the industry mostly uses the firmware of the internal configuration of the computer equipment - the basic input / output system (hereinafter referred to as BIOS) program has a boot self-test (p〇wer a nSelf-Test; The following is a short-circuit (POST) program for detecting faults in various hardware components of a computer device. The operation mode is when the computer device is booted, that is, booting is started to enter the BIOS, and in the process of entering the BIOS, The POST program is executed. The fault detection in the POST program includes starting various test programs to determine, for example, a memory controller, a video control, a serial communication controller, a parallel communication controller, a keyboard controller, a floppy disk controller, and a hard disk. Whether the hardware component of the computer device such as the controller is 5 19102 M291039 is correct. When an error is found during the execution of the POST program, the error message identification code (P0ST code) is displayed on the screen of the computer/device, or even through the alarm. The way the sound is sounded to indicate the detected fault, thereby facilitating the user to find the location of the faulty hardware component To facilitate the subsequent troubleshooting. However, it can be indicated by the error message on the screen or by the sound of the alarm. It is usually a non-critical fault. If the P0ST program is detected, a serious fault occurs in a hardware component of the computer equipment (example > system clock error When a fatal fault occurs, the computer equipment will stop directly. At this time, since various initialization settings have not been completed, no prompts or signals can be issued, so that the user cannot know the hardware components of the computer equipment through the detection process of the POST program. The location of the specific fault. Therefore, the failure detection of the hardware components of the computer equipment by the POST program can not effectively detect the fault condition of the computer equipment one by one. In response to the above problems, the industry uses a debug card (Debug Card) to display the type of error in the computer system with the LED installed on it. The position setting of the wrong card is generally determined. In the BIOS, the common method is to transfer the identification code to the port that is used to connect to the printer (printer).

However, this method requires the purchase of a separate debt card, which not only increases the cost burden, but f cannot directly display the relevant error message (subject to judgment by a professional). It is inconvenient to use. 6 19102 M291039 In addition, some companies use a Baseboard-Management Controller (BMC) chip to record fault conditions. However, this method requires assembly testing of the motherboard (MB) to know the fault information. It takes time and cost, and when assembling and testing, it is easy to misjudge due to factors such as jigs and other factors, which leads to the judgment of human error. In summary, how to propose a fault detection device to avoid various defects in the prior art, and also has the effect of saving time for finding the location of the fault to improve the efficiency of fault repair, which is currently being solved in this field. technical problem.
