I am having some problems with my A3000, it crashes and the crashes are becoming more frequent and more annoying. I can't find any sort of pattern to the crashes but I am still trying to do so. The machine passes every memory test that I have run. I borrowed a copy of "Final Test" but it seems to be for the A500 and A2000 and not for the A3000. Final Test crashes but I have no way to determine if this is unique to the A3000 or not. I am looking for a diagnostic program to try and find the problem. AC's Guide to the Amiga (summer '93 edition) lists two programs that might help, they are: Free Spirit Software's Doctor Ami and Custom Services' STU Amiga System Test Utility. The latest Grapevine ad lists a product named "Advanced Amiga Analyzer." I called them but they could give me no information on this program (although they were quite eager to take my order). When I pressed for a number that I could call for information on this program they gave me a phone number for Commodore. (Boy am I impressed with these guys!) Is anyone here familar with any of these three programs? If so, I'd sure like your opionions before I buy one of these. Thanks in advance, -J
