IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics, developed by Watergate Software with IBM Advanced Memory Diagnostics. PC300/700 Series, IntelliStation Diagnostics, developed by Diagsoft for IBM. Note See "General Checkout (Type 6272 Models 88X, 89X, 90X, 91X)" on page 5 for diagnostic options and procedures for these Type 6272 (disketteless) models. IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics: The IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics programs use a full range of diagnostic utilities to determine the operating condition of the computers hardware components. The user interface is WaterGate's PC-Doctor which serves as the control program for running the IBM Advanced Memory Diagnostics and the suite of diagnostic tests provided by PC-Doctor. The IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics diskette, P/N 10L9171, and the supplemental diskette, P/N 10L9176, come with an information sheet and online help. Updates for the IBM PC Enhanced Diagnostics are available on-line at: http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/ This diagnostic diskette includes: A new user interface (WaterGate Software's PC-Doctor) - This interface serves as the control program for running both the IBM Advanced Memory Diagnostics and the suite of diagnostic tests provided by PC-Doctor. IBM Advanced Memory Diagnostics - The memory diagnostic tests determine which memory module (SIMM or DIMM) is defective and report the socket where the failing module is located. The Memory diagnostics can run a quick and full test of the system. Diagnostics can also be run on a single SIMM or DIMM.
