        I use a program called AMIDiags.  Its not smooth and friendly
looking and it gives cryptic error messages, but it does a great job of
finding problems.

        It was put out by American Megatrends.  It's a DOS based program,
but works best from a clean boot, so the OS is pretty irrelevant.

        For the MAC we don't tend to use on too often, but when we do we
use an old copy of Peace of Mind (I don't remeber the Publisher) But
generally we find that if a Mac has a problem it becomes pretty obvious
without diagnostic software :)
