Society's reliance on computers means that the cost of hardware failure can be enormous. BurnInTest can thoroughly exercises PC hardware in the shortest period of time so intermittent or hidden problems are found before they turn into a disaster.
BurnInTest is an easy-to-use software tool that simultaneously exercises all of the major components of a computer to test for endurance and reliability. The user can select hardware components to test and individually adjust the load placed on each one via slide bars.
Each test reports results to its own window and results are summarised along with any errors detected in the main program window. A computer's major components (including CPUs, raw and formatted hard drives, tape/CD/DVD/Blu-Ray drives, sound and graphics cards, RAM, network connections and ports) can be tested at the same time.
Results can be saved to disk, printed or exported as a graphical image. Other features include periodic logging, a temperature monitoring interface and max CPU temperature test, and timed test runs.
BurnInTest also gives users access to detailed system information including as the CPU data (such as amount of CPU cores and physical CPUs, CPU features, clock speed and L2 cache size); Physical and Virtual Memory read outs and advanced Graphics Card information.
Pre-defined quick tests, context sensitive right-click menus and hotkeys for common tasks means that stress-testing your machine has never been easier. BurnInTest is also available with serial, parallel and USB loopback plugs to facilitate port testing and features comprehensive online help and in-built help files.
All purchases of BurnInTest 6 include 12 months of free technical support and major/minor software upgrades. BurnInTest is suited to computer enthusiasts, systems integrators and manufacturers or anyone who wants to cost effectively evaluate their system.
This program allows all the major sub-systems of a computer to be simultaneously stress tested for reliability, endurance and stability.
Limitations:
· 30 days trial
· Nag screen
What's New in This Release:
· BurnInTest 7.0 now supports Windows 8 developer preview.
· BurnInTest now uses the PassMark SysInfo SDK to get temperature information.
· The "Collecting system information" progress window was displayed when the "-w" command line parameter was specified (to minimize the amount of system information collected). This has been corrected.
· The "-a" command line parameter has been removed as it does not make sense with BurnInTest 7.0 being run with elevated administrator privileges. Use "-w" to minimize the amount of system information collected.
· BurnInTest could crash on the optical disk test when run with non-PassMark test media, e.g. when run with a DVD video. This has been corrected.
· BurnInTest could crash on startup on a small number of systems when run in debug mode. i.e. only when run with the "-u" command line parameter. This has been corrected.
