The options are: Test MSX base RAM Test MSX Video RAM Test MSX Memory Mapper Test MSX MegaRAM Do all test above Restart program Reset program * Registering the program TestRAM is not free. TestRAM is "programware". What does it means? It means that if you like TestRAM and use it, you must register it by sending me a MSX program (freeware or shareware). It can be any program, including one made by yourself (but, please, not a BASIC "Hello world!"). By doing it you will receive the last version of TestRAM and will have all the support on it. * The author TestRAM is copyright (c) 1998 by A&L Software.
