MicroPose (MicroProse?) - do the Micro2000, which is a rather useful
POST probe.....

It's not cheap, but well worth it for the usefulness, it is listening
address configurable, and will provide extra diagnostics like Osc check,
clock check tri state logic probe, and of course all the voltages....

One thing tho.. don't ask me how to get hold of the company, I haven't
dealt with them for a _long_ time, they are US based with an office here
in the UK...

Yours

Matthew
