Intelliquis International, Inc., IntelliFIX 2000 Software
notes: label: Description
content: Major computer software companies such as Microsoft and Apple provided Y2K compliant updated operating systems and application software for users to download. To help identify other Y2K issues on personal computers, a number of companies offered remedial software products. One of these was IntelliFIX 2000 by Intelliquis International, Inc. Their product would check hardware, DOS operating system, and software. This version was free and ran a pass/fail test. The full version, which could be purchased for $79, would report the issues and permanently correct date problems with the BIOS and the CMOS real-time clock. In 1999, Stewart Cheifet of the <I>Computer Chronicles</I> rated the product as a very good all-in-one solution for hardware and software.
