Service technicians can use the error codes to transform a piece of descriptive prose into a six-character combination of letters and numbers. For example, let's say a Windows 2000 machine has been brought into the shop because of a recurring "cannot read disk" error when a DVD-ROM is inserted into the drive. The service tech replicates the problem with known good media, and then confirms that the suspect drive also returns errors when installed in an otherwise healthy system. When the tech contacts the original system manufacturer for a replacement drive, he can document his troubleshooting process thus far by providing them the error code ERLR32. (Visit CompTIA's site for your very own error code decoder ring.) I'll admit that when I first learned about the revised error codes, my first thought was "Well, sure." There has to be something new to memorize for the 2008 A+ Computer Hardware certification exams, right? CompTIA does more than just administer the technician certification process, though. As the primary computer technology industry trade association, CompTIA is where all the big n

Partnerships Trending: Company Facts More Storage Virtualization News and Trends / CompTIA Issues New Standard Error Codes CompTIA Issues New Standard Error Codes By Chris Gonsalves | Posted 2007-08-09 Email Print New codes will help service technicians better diagnose, analyze and solve problems on PCs and related IT equipment. CompTIA issued Aug. 10 a new set of Standard Error Codes to help service technicians better diagnose, analyze and solve problems on PCs and related IT equipment. The new codes let techs assign numeric values to most attributes of a service incident, including primary operating system, mode of failure (intermittent, continuous, etc.), actions taken by the services technician and failure symptoms that caused the customer to request service. The new set of codes updates the one first ones created by CompTIA in the mid-1980s as the definitive guide for PC repair technicians. Information collected through the use of these codes makes it easier for manufacturers to perform analysis of the symptoms reported by customers experiencing problems, said officials at the industry organization in Oakbrook Terrace, Ill. Manufacturers will also have the ability to track specific parts from service call initiation through resolution and back to the component manufacturer, they said. Read here about CompTIA's certification program for technicians at seven printing and document imaging organizations. Officials hope that expanded use of the codes will allow manufacturers to reduce the number of "no problem found" service incidents when parts are replaced but are subsequently found to be in working order. Service providers can also use the Standard Error Code data to analyze their own repair work and trends. The new codes were developed as part of the CompTIA Services and Support Group
