Automatically testing all parts of a new computer

Solution 1:

Here's a few ideas:

  • Memtest86+ is good for testing the RAM (run it non-stop for more than 24 hours; we usually do 72 before declaring the RAM 'good').
  • You can beat the CPU up for a few days using Prime95 as well.
  • If you've got cash to spend, check out Ultra-X's Quick Tech Pro software.
