Zusammenfassung:According to the present invention, an apparatus for detecting a fault is a card-type apparatus, installed in a computer PCI slot. When power is applied to a computer, a CPU sequentially processes content of a mainboard ROM BIOS. If a specific hardware is faulty, the sequential process is ceased. In this case, the apparatus of the present invention notifies a user of faulty hardware by recognizing a ceased address of the ROM BIOS. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for detecting a hardware fault to help a user to easily determine a reason of the fault. 본 발명에 따른 장애 감지 장치는 카드형태로 컴퓨터 PCI slot에 장착되며, 컴퓨터 전원 인가시 CPU는 메인보드 롬바이오스 내용을 순차적으로 처리하는데 특정 하드웨어 장애시 순차적 진행을 중단한다. 본 발명의 장치는 이러한 경우 롬바이오스의 중단 번지를 인식하여 장애 하드웨어를 사용자에게 알려준다.
