Just wondering what applications people here have for building new systems and running initial tests or for testing out upgrades? I'm going to be building my rig in the new week or so and am trying to compile a decent bootable CD or DVD I can use to go in and test out my machine to make sure everything is working properly.
I have memtest86 already but would love to hear of some more tools people use for diagnostics on their rigs, preferably ones that can be accessed before going into Windows whenever possible.
Also, is there any decent free disc imaging software out there that you guys would recommend? I know of a few paid solutions but would prefer a free option if it can do a good enough job. Something I can use to create a recovery disc image once I get Windows 7 installed and some crucial apps on there.
Thanks guys
