PC Diagnostic Software

Micro-Scope™

Micro-Scope is the diagnostic software of choice for professional pc tech's, worldwide.

Micro 2000's Award Winning Micro-Scope Software for Professional Tech's is probably the best diagnostic tool available anywhere. Used by Technicians at: Intel, IBM, Hewlett Packard, Honeywell, AT&T, DEC, Toshiba, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, NASA etc, as well as the US, Canadian & UK Governments, US, Canadian, UK and NATO Armed Forces and many many more world wide. If that isn't a Pedigree we don't know what is. These pro's are not using Micro 2000 products because they are the cheapest, they are using them because they think they are better than anything else currently available!

NEW in Micro-Scope! - As well as enhanced support for the latest pc hardware, Micro-Scope 2005 has the following new or enhanced diagnostic features:

Enhancements:

• Updated micro-processor identifications and benchmarking.
• Added System or Motherboard Manufacturer Name, Model Number and Serial Number to the Report and System Information Screen.
• Added Serial Number to the Fixed Disk identification to the Report and System Information Screen.
• Added L1, L2 and L3 Cache data to the Report and System Information Screen
• Added NTFS support to the Partition Display/Editor.
• Expanded the IDE Device support from 4 devices to 8 devices.
• Expanded the ability to find all IDE Controllers including SATA and RAID.
• Added Intel Pro 1000 and Pro 100 NIC Support and added 3Com 3C2000NIC Support.
• Added LBA Sector entry to Hard Disk Editor.
• Added Parallel ATA, Serial ATA and IDE RAID support to the ATA/SCSI testing and editor (it use to only support ATAPI and SCSI devices).

New Support:

• SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) support for IDE Hard Disk Drives.
• Added an automated “Run All” from the command line prompt which performs all tests applicable to the components installed on the system then saves a report.
• Added support for SATA Hard Disk Drives.
• Added support for IDE RAID Hard Disk Drives.
• Added support to test IDE (both SATA and PATA) Hard Disk Drives even if the BIOS does not recognize the drives.
• USB-Scope is now Integrated into the MicroScope 2005 Suite.
• Microscope 2005 Suite now uses FreeDOS for its Operating System to allow saving reports and saving/loading batch test selections to FAT partitioned Hard Disk Drives.

Diagnostic Software General Features:

• UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY - Micro-Scope diagnostic software is truly operating system independent meaning the software will run on any IBM or Intel compatible pc hardware regardless of the operating system installed on the pc, including systems running Novell and Linux.

• EXTENSIVE SYSTEM INFORMATION—Micro-Scope directly queries pc hardware to identify the exact device such as CPU, NPU, BIOS name and version, detailed fixed disk information, video information, and port information. Incorporates data from DMI, Plug & Play, and PCI resources. Support for all the latest CPU’s from Intel and AMD.

• ACCURATELY IDENTIFIES CONFLICTS - Micro-Scope carries out complete I/O port scanning and identifies all I/O port usage, even if two or more devices are using the same resources. Specific device type diagnostic routines identify device type, IRQ usage, and DMA usage. Complete memory scanning identifies ROM type, beginning address and ending address. All diagnostic routines function even if a conflict exists. This is absolutely essential for upgrading and adding pc hardware. The software also checks PCI and Plug & Play devices.

• INCLUDES DMI INFORMATION - Pooled from the DMI (Desktop Management Information) area of the BIOS, the software DMI screens show extended system information such as bus types supported on the pc system board, maximum speed and voltage settings for the CPU, and cache size and type. Know how many free DIMM sockets are available or what kind of RAM is in the system without having to open the case.

• LOW MEMORY TESTING - Option to test ALL Base Memory prior to loading  Micro-Scope, means that even a problem in the under 64k segment of base memory, which could prevent other diagnostics from loading can be accurately identified.

• SECURE WIPE -  Provides hard drive sterilization ensuring data security and privacy by erasing data above and beyond requirements of the DoD 5220.22-M standard. Allows companies, law enforcement agencies, the military, financial institutions etc. to dispose of computer hard drives without fear that sensitive data can be recovered from them.

• COMPARE SETTINGS - Micro-Scope software automatically interrogates PC hardware on loading and displays the actual configuration, simultaneously displays the CMOS and POST information, and automatically flags all inaccurate settings.

USB Diagnostic Features

• HOST CONTROLLER MANUFACTURER- Identifies the manufacturer of all USB controllers on your system.

• HOST CONTROLLER TYPE—Identifies each controller in the system and its type.
• HOST CONTROLLER ACCESS—Identifies the memory or the I/O address used by each host controller as well as the hardware interrupt.
• AVAILABLE PORTS—Identifies how many USB ports are on each controller and whether or not there are any devices connected.
• DEVICE IDENTIFICATION—Identifies the manufacturer, device name or number and speed for all connected USB devices.
• HOST CONTROLLER PCI TEST—Tests all elements of the USB controller’s interaction with the PCI bus.
• USB POWER MANAGEMENT—Tests the ability of the USB Host Controller to register with the Power Management function of the system.
• USB HOST RESOURCES & INTERRUPTS—Tests the USB Host Controller resources including I/O ports and interrupts used.
• USB ROOT HUB—Tests the interface, endpoints, memory I/O, configuration, and interrupt.
• USB ROOT PORT TEST (Via included USB-Scope Smart Test Device)—Tests the actual port and its controller through establishing communications with the USB-Scope Smart Test Device and sending and receiving information. The diagnostic will also determine at which speed data is being transmitted.

• UPGRADES - Micro-Scope is up-dated regularly with new features and latest hardware support.
