Undo All Changes
Removes all settings made since last "DONE--
INSTALL CHANGES. Returns you to the Desk
Accessory menu.
Done--Install Changes
Exits from the RamPak utilities and returns to
ProDOS, while installing all of your memory settings in
your IIGS RAM. Your RamPak Memory Management
Utilities disk MUST be in the drive to install.
This Menu will open a Dialog Box entitled 'Save
Changes to Disk" which will allow you to select a memory-
only installation or a Save-To-Disk. Save-to-Disk installs
the changes on the disk so that they will be remembered
at the next time you run your program. You will be
prompted for the path name of the disk to which you
wish to save the currrent changes. (Refer to theProDOS
manual for instructions on how to do this.)
Like any electronic component, RAM chips do have a
potential to fail or to develop problems. If such
occurrences go undetected, you may lose or corrupt
your data. To help detect RAM problems before they
cause damage, the RamPak Memory Management
Utilities include two levels of testing, which can be
executed either at the start of every session or on an "as-
requested" basis.
Quick Memory Test
Selects a superficial READ-WRITE test of all installed
RAM. Any errors will be detected and reported by
address location. The QUICK MEMORY TEST is good
for general use, as it takes considerably less time than
the EXTENDED MEMORY TEST, yet is highly reliable in
detecting the existence of a problem.
