    PC diag software for DOS

    Looking for some advanced PC diag software to be run in DOS mode. I don't want any GUI Windows stuff. running a LAN of 400 PC's and it's good to have something to test difficult problems. Something like PC Clinic for DOS which I can no longer find.
    thanks

    Norton Disk Doctor is a great tool, but it only checks the hard drive for problems, not the whole PC. Its part of the Norton utilities 8.0 suite.

    if you want to check your drive just go to your hard drives website
    and get utilities there

    I agree with TheGorx. pccheck.exe is a very good utility for testing hardware.

    umm, no, Norton Diagnostics V8.0 which I have (DOS utils) checks all Hardware on motherboard, including extensive memory testing, etc.

    Ok, not a big deal, but I was queing off of what you posted. Norton Disk Doctor, (ndd.exe) is a purely disk drive tool. Norton Diagnostics (ndiag.exe) checks the whole computer. Both are part of Norton Utilities. A must have DOS tool, IMO.
