Download Ultimate Boot CD and use the vendor specific hard drive long
test. If it passes, sounds like you might have an issue on the MoBo.

This computer has a hardware diagnostic tool that you can access at
startup. Ran that, it tests memory, HDD, CMOS, system board etc. It
passed every test except the SMART extended test on the HD. It past the
short SMART test but not the extended, it also passed the surface
scans. Hard drive going bad? Could this cause computer to just shut
off at random? When I say shut off I mean like the power was pulled, no
blue screen or aything, just blip its gone. I have not tested the
system temp yet

finished. May swap ram and see what happens.

Does anybody know of a program (prefer free) that will test all the
hardware in a PC? Memory, MB etc? I got a laptop that will randomly
shut off with no warning. Not sure if its a memory problem, getting
too hot or something else.
