Introduction
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
BRAM Checker is an Apple IIgs Temporary Initialization file (TIF) that
|
|
checks the contents of the battery RAM present in an Apple IIgs for
|
|
changes from an image that is saved to the disk. You will be notified
|
|
at boot time of any changes to the battery ram since the last time you
|
|
booted the computer. The program will inform you of the battery RAM
|
|
locations that were changed, and give you the opportunity to restore the
|
|
old values or continue booting with the new values.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Just copy the file "BRAM.Checker" to the "*:System:System.Setup" folder on
|
|
your boot disk.
|
|
|
|
That is all.
|
|
|
|
Using the Program
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
If you make a change (or someone else does) to your battery RAM, for example,
|
|
change the monitor border color, BRAM.Checker will inform you of the change
|
|
during the next boot. You will have the option of accepting the changes and
|
|
continuing with the boot, or you may restore the old values.
|
|
|
|
If the battery RAM has changed, the IIgs boot process will be interrupted
|
|
by a dialog on the text screen informing you that there was a change. Press
|
|
ESC to see which values were actually changed; press return to simply accept
|
|
the changes and continue. After viewing which items were changed, another
|
|
dialog allows you to either restore the old values (press ESC), or continue
|
|
with the new (changed) values (press RETURN).
|
|
|
|
BRAM.Checker saves a copy of your battery RAM to a file called "BRAM.Image"
|
|
in your System.Setup folder. This saved image is compared to the battery
|
|
RAM image at boot time, and you are informed of differences.
|
|
|
|
That's it. Have fun with it.
