Re: Apple IIgs Ram Tester Program

["Mark Cummings" <NOTfigjams@primus.com.au>]

If you use the specific AE RAM test program called "AE GS-RAM test" it
should point you at the exact chip and give a nice drawing to boot. No skill
invilved. The program works with a variety of AE RAM cards (I'm not sure
about yours), and is by far the easiest way to find a faulty chip.

If you can't find it, let me know and I will send it to you. File I have is
only 13K called GSTEST.SHK

you need GSHK to extract it.
