Production Release 1.01        Available February, 1992

Part Number: 910527-002        5.25 inch, 1.2MB diskette 1 of 1

    PROBLEMS RESOLVED:

    - The confidence test was changed to sense either one of two video
      controllers: the Western Digital 90C10 (AST part number 106000-715, or
      the 90C11 (AST part number 106000-761). In the previous version, the
      confidence test would hang the system if the 90C10 was the system's
      video controller.

    ENHANCEMENTS:

    - MSDOS components have been added to the diskette to make it boot
      directly into the confidence test.
