Amiga Future (Webseite) Diagnostic tool: DiagROM 1.1
DiagROM is a diagnostic tool which the user has to burn in an EPROM and the replaces the Kickstart-ROM of an Amiga. Third parties also sell ROMs. The software does not require any timer, IRQs etc. and therefore should be able to run on only partly working computers and do some hardware tests. The results are given to the serial interface or to the screen as different colour codes.

Version 1.1 introduces a "new memory-detection routine that hopefully finds more memory" as well as a "A600/1200/4000 IDE detection". Additionally there are some powerup extras. (snx) (Translation: dr)
