There are two series of advanced diagnostics disks.  One for the PC & XT,
and one for the AT.  The PC&XT version was at about 2.07 last I looked,
but in the last couple of weeks I just got an update to the AT advanced diags.
which is now version 2.02 with support for the new 30Mb disk and voice
module.  So you probably need advanced diagonstics for the AT version 1.05
or higher.  You get it with the AT Hardware Maint. Manual.
