About the Test Programs

Using the Command Line Options

The following Command Line Options allow you to define specific conditions for running the diagnostic programs at startup time.

At the operating system prompt, type QAPRO /XXX (where /XXX represents one of the following from the list below); then, press

Enter:

/B&WThe /B&W option forces the program to load in black and white (monochrome) mode.

/LOG=file	The /LOG=file option directs the test programs
	to start using a specified Error Log file.
/INT10	The /INT10 option forces the test programs to
	use the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) for
	screen writes.
/OXXX	The /OXXX option, where XXX=test group
	(for example, MBD/MEM/VID/HDU/FDU
	/KBD/COM/LPT, and so on), omits the
	designated test group from testing. (See
	/IXXX for a list of valid test groups.)
/OALL	The /OALL option omits all test groups from
	testing. (See /IXXX for more information.)
/IXXX	The /IXXX option, where XXX=test group,
	includes the designated test group. When
	used in conjunction with the /OALL option,
	you can specify the tests that you want to
	include. These options are helpful if you have
	insufficient memory available to load all of the
	test programs simultaneously, or if you want
	to test specific test groups.
	The valid test groups are:
	LPT	Parallel port
	COM	Serial ports
	HDU	Hard disk (IDE only)
	FDU	Diskette drive
	VID	Video
	MBD	System board
