I have a couple of flakey bits that get flaged by my POST (Power on Self Test) and I need a program that will 1) test memory 2) soak the memory, 3) Produce a some what meaningful error message 4) Public Domain / Shareware or cheap commercial (i.e. <= $25). Machine info: 12MHZ 0 Wait State AT clone, 100ns memory, runs ok at 8Mhz Nice options: 1) Can test out Extended or Expanded memory 2) Change the area where the progam runs out of, so that all of the 640k main memory can be tested. Please send any info or leads to: Jeff Wolford att!iwsag!jww att!ihlpa!wolfordj harvard-+ | ucbvax--+---- att --+ iwsag!jww | decvax--+

Brown Bag Software has a shareware program called RAMTEST which should do
what you want. I believe they ask for $25. They can be reached at
(408)559-4545.

Perhaps this is your problem. -- Rick Schubert (rns@se-sd.sandiego.NCR.COM)
