Default HP Diagnostic boot disk

Is there such a thing as a diagnostic boot disk HP desktop and laptop computers.

Unlike Dell, HP don't do diagnostic partitions. Sometimes I find it useful to test the computer without going into Windows. Do HP provide a way of doing this?

if you want to check partitions, why dont you download the utility tools from the hard drive manufacturers?

I think HP servers come with a Diagnostics disc, but I'm not sure about their Desktops/Laptops.

I use something like Main Page - SystemRescueCd to run diagnostic checks, works well on most PCs.
