-
- PC-IDENT
- ========
- Reports copyright information found in system's ROM BIOS
- code. Useful in determining BIOS source vendor and
- variations due to clone manufacturer. PC-IDENT is a stand
- alone utility which may be used to identify the real
- manufacturer of your machine and the ROM BIOS it contains.
- This program displays the most likely copyright message, as
- well as all ASCII strings which match certain search
- criteria.
-
- If PC-INFO does not return the correct manufacturer or model,
- please run PC-IDENT and send us a copy of the output so that
- we may upgrade PC-INFO to recognize your machine/model.
-
-
-
- What's new in this version:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The base addresses of all Serial and Parallel Ports are now
- shown on the output screen,along with the previously reported
- number of ports.
-
- Weitek 3167 numeric coprocessors are now recognized &
- identified, in additon to the more common Intel
- varieties.PC-INFO reports the presence of a Weitek NDP
- regardless of whether the INTEL 80387 is installed or not.
-
- The signature 'IBM COMPATIBLE' or 'IBM IS TRADEMARK..' in the
- ROM BIOS now cause machines to be identified as clones rather
- than as true IBM machines.
-
- PC-INFO now handles LCD display on Toshiba 1600 laptops
- correctly. In addition, certain EPSON Equity models, the
- COMPAQ Deskpro 286 and Portable 286,the TI DeskPro and a
- selection of new NEC,Sperry, Toshiba & Zenith laptop models
- are uniquely recognized by PC-INFO. Improved recognition
- code for Data General & NCR machines. AT&T's 6836 WGS series
- are identified as either Olivetti or INTEL based. IBM PS/2
- Model 55 and 70P machines have been added to the machines
- recognized by PC-INFO.
-
- The /m option has been revised to so that swapping back to
- screen 1 from screen 2 will not cause certain LCD displays to
- display in reverse video unexpectadly.
-
- Extended memory on systems running DOS 4.00 or later now have
- the amount of available extended memory reported,rather than
- just the amount installed. (This is consistant with the
- amount reported by Int 16, function 88h.) When L/I/M Expanded
- Memory is present, the EMS version is now displayed, along
- with the amount of memory.
-
- Bug fixed such that IBM PS/2 Model 70/80 now correctly report
- the amount of installed extended memory. All IBM PS/2 Model
- 50s will be identified as 'IBM PS/2 Model 50/50Z', since
- they're identical except for the disk size & speed.
