Hello world,
	I am in need of a program, or a set of utilities that may be used 
to test all RAM chips that exist in old IBM/PC's and XT's.  I am looking for
something that I have for my 286 at home -- this software will display all
of the RAM chips graphically, and then will run for several hours, and tell
the user exactly which chips may be the culpits.  There are a number of 
computers here at work, which I feel are suffering from "amnesia".  These
computers run fine for a time, then they just lock up.  Upon reboot, they
display a xxxx 201 error.  After opening up the case, and resetting all of
the RAM chips, the machine usually runs for awhile, but the problem eventually
returns.  Thanks in advance, I would greatly appreciate any information that
any of you might have.
