Any good system utility/checkup that's freeware/functional shareware? My system's been crashing in games and want to do a quick scan.
 
Are you looking for an all-in-one type solution? I suggest reading Ice Czar's Warez to Freeware sticky. Do you play games that address alot of memory? Graphic intensive? Do they crash when loading between levels or when alot of explosions/whatever are going on?

EDIT: It's been my experience that an all-in-one utility usually isn't that great.
 
Yep, the game crashes I get are typically when a lot is going on, not loading level, etc. Mainly in Ground Control 2, which buggy IMO. Other games not so bad, FarCry, Painkiller, etc.

Have a fairly new system and want to check the RAM to make sure they're not defective. With 1-gig of HyperX I don't think I should be running out of memory in these games. Maybe a Video card error? My 9800 pro should be OK, but it's only the 128 version. tried lower res, etc., but still crashing.
