Is there a short test program for Voodoo Cards in DOS?
It seems that PCPBench doesn't work with Voodoo 1 cards or is my Maxi Gamer 3D broken?

Back when a friend and I were playing Quake on Monster 3D's, we used the Barrage demo to test voodoo1's.

What about having the card working and running a demo, but wanting to test/verify specs?
Is there any utility/diagnostic tool (pure DOS) that will detect the card and say "that's a voodoo 2 with 8mb", perform some tests and verify that all memory is ok, both TMU's are operational etc.
Or is it enough that demos run and in case of any problem, it would be obvious to spot?

Ages later, just tried this and was exactly what I was looking for. Along with mojo.exe does the job. Thank you!
