USB in DOS: I need your help

USB in DOS: I need your help.

Last Updated: 22 Sept 2009

I have been making good progress on my book. However, to make sure that I have a wide range of tests
performed, i need your help. I have multiple test machines, but they are few compared to the amount
of tests that should be done to make a thorough and accurate test base.

If you are willing to help, and meet the requirements for each test, please download the test, perform
the test, and then email the results back to me at fys [at] frontiernet [dot] net. I will have a
"contributors" section and will include your name if you have helped with these tests. Please leave a
name or handle name. If you would not like to be included in the "contributors" section, simply comment.

Thank you,
Ben

Notes: These tests require a DOS based system. They will not work under a Windows/Linux system that emulates
DOS via a DOS box, DOS session, DOSBox, QEmu, Bochs, etc. The zip file includes a floppy disk image (tests.img)
that you can write to a 1.44 meg floppy. It contains FreeDOS and the test(s). An installer is also included.
Once you have installed tests.img to the disk, simply place in the floppy drive and reboot your machine.

The test(s) also require a DPMI (DOS Protected Mode Interface) server. There is one included in the .zip
file along with one already installed on the tests.img disk.

The test(s) also require a 486+ with the CPUID and RDTSC instructions.

There is no intention what-so-ever to inflict harm to your computer, however, if you decide to help, you do
so at your own risk. To the best of my knowledge, these tests will not harm your computer in anyway. Still,
****** use at your own risk ******

I have combined the tests to one floppy so that you do not have to install mutliple times just
to check for multiple controllers.
