You can find a wide variety of FREE downloadable boot disks here then you can use This page to determine what commands to use for the information you are seeking. The chkdsk command would probably be a good place to start. You can also check here for boot disks.
Good Luck!

Working on old equipment is a chalange. I suggest you look into UBCD <a href="http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/" title="http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/" target="_blank">http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/</a> as it will boot from CD and has many useful utilities including AIDA16. You can also create a bootable floppy and place AIDA16 on it and you can download it from <a href="http://soft.softoogle.com/ap/aida16-download-1910.shtml" title="http://soft.softoogle.com/ap/aida16-download-1910.shtml" target="_blank">http://soft.softoogle.com/ap/aida16-down…</a> If you are more in to trying new things, here is a project site that may be of interest  <a href="http://rule-project.org/?q=node/4" title="http://rule-project.org/?q=node/4" target="_blank">http://rule-project.org/?q=node/4</a>
Let us know if you need additional suggestions.
