Louis,

Did you get the latest firmware updates before they shut down the FTP site? I haven't been able to get into it and I have a SIMcheck II that's acting weird with some PS/2 modules I'm trying to test and it's running an old revision (1.32).

It is with great sadness that we announce that our president, CEO, and
Chief inventor, Dr. David Y. Feinstein passed away in October 2019.

Since its founding in 1984, INNOVENTIONS Inc. has generated new products
and innovative ideas. The company is a manufacturer of electronic memory testers, and pioneered the tilt-to-scroll view navigation and the
virtual touchpad technologies in mobile devices. The company is also
involved in academic research.

Innoventions, Inc. has closed its business operations permanently as of
May 5, 2020 due to COVID-19. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

This log is intended for SIMCHECK's Tech Support Specialists. It
provides an ongoing record of SIMCHECK/SIMCHECK PLUS firmware
development. The old SIMCHECK line has been discontinued in 1996 and
replaced by our RAMCHECK and SIMCHECK II LT units.

The log has three parts. The first lists the firmware versions and their
major features. Important production changes as well as manual printing
are partially included. The second lists the development of the adapters
and the corresponding firmware version that provides initial support for
each adapter. The third part logs the development of the PC
Communications Software.

This document contains proprietary information and is intended for use
by SIMCHECK's Tech Support specialists only. SIMCHECK is protected by
patents, trade secrets and copyright worldwide.

It would be real nice if wee could get one of these snark barker guys to get us a svga card that would do true color


I have a crossbreed ibm 320 machine that does perfect 64 bit true color with a Tseng labs 4 mb pci card

Seems like someone could make it work on the mca side and use the some of the same windows drivers etc..

2MB 72-pin SIMMS. Either I've had very bad luck recently (which is possible) or it's not quite handling them correctly. One SIMM passes the basic test, then causes the SIMcheck to restart during the extended test!
