    After memtest I think Sandra should be your next port of call

    Make sure you do the Burn in test mate.

    10 rounds should do it.

    Possibly a bad download.

    Try restarting your computer or reinstalling it.

    Hi.

    Its Still not working, ive downloaded 3 times from different servers and each just wont launch after instilation.

    The reason i want it is im having problems with my pc, so i suppose there could be something stopping it launching, maybe a small program it requires.

    Are there any other programs similar to Sisoft Sandra?

    Thanks for all the help
    Lewis :wink:

    Im running burn-in tests today on my home pc using Sandra - and im getting 'seek error: random out of bounds' errors on one of my cd drives

    Does it just mean my cd drive is buggered?

    Well, im just wondering because the cd I have in there at the moment is of a game that im having major issues with at the moment - so could be the drive or the cd I guess. Will try it with another cd when I get home.
