Tools to test the status of your computer or laptop

July 16, 2012   /   by Marco  / Categories :  Software, Technology

Here’s my list of tools to use to diagnose a hardware problem:

For checking memory:

1. Memtest 86+ (DOS mode test memory). This is a free tool and you can download it here: http://www.memtest.org/

2. 3DMark06 – Used to test your graphics card. http://www.futuremark.com/benchmarks/3dmark06/introduction/
3. PC Mark7 – Can download the trial version and test system performance. http://www.pcmark.com/benchmarks/pcmark7/
4. PassMark BurnInTest 6 – You can download the trial version and this software will allow you to check and test a computer for endurance, reliability and stability. http://www.passmark.com/download/bit_download.htm

If there’s any others that I should test let me know.
