What software to trouble shoot hardware

[Gun_Strife]

I was woundering if there is any software that hopefully works in windows
that will allow tests for hardware to see if its working properly such as gpu or hdd or psu

 

[Gun_Strife]

anyone?

typically if something extists it will come with a particular device, with the exception of the PSU. Outside of monitoring the voltage levels, theres no way a software could tell you if the PSU is about to blow up.

Diagnostic software is available for certain hardware. For example, HD diagnostic utilities are available at the individual manufacturer sites. Memtest is available for checking memory. That's all I know of.

Most software of this kind is meant to run outside of Windows for more accurate results.
