actually, i've found ttp4 very useful for checking hardware, except that the memory test always fails at the higher "intensity" on every machine i've tried it on. apple uses a program called "mac test pro" for testing hardware, but only techs are supposed to have access to it. other than that i don't know what to say. i also like norton, for drive problems but absolutely not for the alleged crash guard or file saver, both of which are nothing but trouble. i usually use disk warrior, but if the drive is sufficiently messed up norton will fix it when disk warrior won't and i've had to do that once (disk warrior flatly reported that there were too many problems and wouldn't try to fix it, after running norton's disk doctor disk warrior was happy with it again and is definitely the first thing to try, though disk first aid is also still sometimes needed, at least under os 9 and earlier).
