Default Diagnostic program?

Does anyone know a good program that can diagnose and check any problems that are occurring inside a pc?

A long llst of free MS orietated XP related programs are seen at http://bhandler.spaces.live.com/blog...7F3!1231.entry Some of those under the troubleshooting and utilities section are for different types of diagnostics. Everest home edition was one that was popular when a free version was available.

SiSoftware's Sandra Lite is currently still a popular system benchmark and diagnostic tool seen at http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/index.ht...buy&langx=en&a=

Some others like PCWizard and CPU ID also found at http://www.freestuffer.com/software/diagnostic.html

If you also want a system information tool that will provide an excellent breakdown on the system, hardwares, softwares, and operating systems as well as even temps the SIW is a small freeware found at http://www.gtopala.com/siw_on_pc_world.html

I use PC check at work, it is kind of an industry standard and it is also not free.

http://www.eurosoft-uk.com/

It will scan the hardware for obvious faults I have yet to see it fail a mobo or processor yet, but I have seen it fail drives and RAM. Then again if you had a bad mobo or processor you probably couldn't even run PC Check.
