I recently built a new system. Really nice, pretty high end, runs Vista Ultimate 64-bit. Yeah I know, but it is what I needed, so I'm sticking to it.
I'm having some issues that seem to indicate that either a hard drive, the RAM, or the CPU is bad. Do you guys know of any decent software to test those parts. Preferably they would boot off of CD so that Windows wouldn't keep them from doing a full test? I don't care if the hard-drive test destroys data, because I'm using RAID 1, and will just pull one drive at a time, and then rebuild after the test. I already ran Memtest86 about 3-4 times, and that didn't discover any memory problems, so is there something that is better than that? Frankly I don't care how long the tests take. If each set of tests takes 72 hours, fine. If it helps me track down the problem I will live without my new computer for that long. -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
