Text Mode Color Test

The Text Mode Color Test contains three subtests that check the video subsystem’s ability to present color in text modes. The following subsections describe these subtests.

NOTE: These subtests are valid for color monitors only.

Color Attributes Subtest (80 x 25)

The 80-column x 25-line color attributes subtest displays a pattern of 16 rows and 16 columns in 80-column by

25-line text mode. Each row has a hexadecimal number in a unique foreground color and each column has a unique background color. Where the same foreground and background color intersect, the hexadecimal number is not visible. Type y if each character is displayed correctly; otherwise, type n. Table B-1 indicates the color in each of the rows and columns.
