Testing SATA, IDE, floppy, printer port, serial port, PS/2 and USB should be straightforward - just use them and see if they work :-). Note that the Fedora install disc (CDROM, DVD) already includes memtest86. When you boot your PC with the Fedora install CD, there's a menu option to run memtest. (No, you don't have to run the installer.) I ran this over the weekend to help my father-in-law diagnose a memory upgrade. Turns out, one of the DIMMs was bad starting around 190MB. -jh - Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!

Are there any freedos compatible programs to test my Intel D845PEBT2 motherboard? I'm having trouble getting Fedora Core 9 to work on it. Dirk Dashing randomly slows way down. I'm also having sound problems. I'm wondering if this is a software issue, but I can't rule out hardware failure. Michael C.

Re: [Freedos-user] hardware testing...
Hi User, Are there any freedos compatible programs to test my Intel D845PEBT2 motherboard? I'm having trouble getting Fedora Core 9 to work on it. Dirk Dashing randomly slows way down. I'm also having sound problems. I'm wondering if this is a software issue, but I can't rule out hardware failure. According to http://support.intel.com/design/motherbd/bt2/index.htm this board has AC97 audio. You might be able to test with MPXPLAY, a nice mp3 player for DOS which supports some AC97 soundcards, too. The board supports Pentium4 and Celeron - pretty old stuff, you should try a Core2Duo or Athlon64x2ee :-). It can use DDR RAM, up to 2 GB, i845PE chipset, SMSC LPC47M172 multi I/O, AGP 4x 1.5V graphics, SIL 3112A SATA (only 2 drives, RAID0/1), USB, LPT, COM, IDE UDMA100, floppy, PS/2, PCI slots. You could run www.memtest.org/ memtest86+ from a boot disk or boot CD or from DOS. When you run it in DOS, you can load HIMEM but cannot load EMM386. Only RAM and your main CPU core (no HT) will be tested that way. Testing SATA, IDE, floppy, printer port, serial port, PS/2 and USB should be straightforward - just use them and see if they work :-). http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ also has a nice list of test tools for DOS and Linux, including several hard disk diagnostic tools.
