This program will function well on 8086s up to 80486s. To execute the program, simply type: CHECKME.EXE from within the directory that the program is installed. The accompanying file "VAL.DAT" contains information about dollar values of computers. If this file is in the same directory, a dollar value will be displayed as determined by the program. Information displayed about the computer: * Speed and Type of Processor 25Mhz (25.0) [2.866 MIPS] 80386 ^ ^ ^ ^ ³ ³ ³ ÀÄ Type of processor ³ ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Million Instructions per Second Rating ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Actual speed measured ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Speed used in determining computer value * Monitor type and speed rating ...

Note that the values given by the program can be severely altered by config.sys or autoexec.bat settings (specifically memory managers and disk cache programs). THIS PROGRAM SHOULD GIVE ACCURATE VALUES IF BOOTED FROM A FLOPPY. * CMOS settings can reduce the speed of a processor as can the Turbo switch. Be sure that the computer is not de-tuned by either of these when running the program or false information can be displayed. Register this software and receive the latest update that does not delay 5 seconds before running as well as an editor for VAL.DAT. So please, dive in and enjoy the fun of legally sharing good software with your friends and associates. But also be aware of the following restrictions, designed to protect the community of User Supported software users and authors, and to prevent greedy people from taking unfair advantage of the trust, hard work, and good will of User Supported software authors: 1. No price or consideration may be charged. However, a distribution cost may be charged for the cost of the diskettes, shipping, and handling, not to exceed $15.00 total. 2. The files and programs on the disks may not be modified, deleted, nor added to. 3. The programs cannot be sold as part of some other more inclusive package. 4. The programs cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others. 5. The Author retains all rights to the CheckMe programs. 6. The programs cannot be used commercially without registration. REGISTRATION To receive the Value Editor and latest version of CHECKME.EXE (without the 5 second startup delay), simply send in the registration form on the next page with a check or money order for $15.00. This exact form is not necessary.

Furthermore, Mike Wishart is fully indemnified from any losses, unfortunate consequences, failures or inadequacies resulting in the direct or, indirect application or, misapplication of this software. REWARD Free registration for information leading to improvement of this program as far as: 1) detecting SX vs DX on 386/486 processors (16/32 bit external bus). 2) detecting new processors (Pentium, R4400, Alpha, or Power PC). 3) detecting floppy disk parameters (heads, tracks, sectors/track) on 8086. 4) NT & Unix Hard Disk Partition System Identifiers. To receive the reward, send in your check or money order for the regular registration fee. If your information proves to be correct, your registration fee will be returned with your new software.
