      If anyone have the following machines, can you run this BASIC program and show       the result from SUM 0 to SUM 7?              Tandy 1000 (Original 01.00.00 user only), 1000EX, 1000TX, 1000HX, 1000TL ,       1000TL/2              This is BIOS checksum program              10 CLS       20 DEF SEG=&HF000       30 FOR B=0 TO 7       40 GOSUB 60       50 NEXT:END       60 A=0:FOR I=&H2000*B TO &H2000*(B+1)-1       70 A=A+PEEK(I):NEXT       80 PRINT"SUM";B+1?B;"=";A       90 RETURN              According to Tandy 1000HX, the result is following as.              SUM 0 = 729800       SUM 1 = 734842       SUM 2 = 881996       SUM 3 = 702017       SUM 4 = 862721       SUM 5 = 531629       SUM 6 = 902557       SUM 7 = 941086              I don't know if this value is correct.              Tandy 1000 BIOS doesn't have checksum byte.       So it can't be verified BIOS checksum is correct or not.       But this program is helpful to check the BIOS sum.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
