Just finished my new build, what next?

So I just completed my new build and installed Vista 32 bit home edition. Just wondering if there is anything I should run to ensure that my build is working correctly. Are there any tests or anything?
 
Run Orthos for 24 hours (that should check for cpu and memory stability), then run 3mark on a loop for a while to check for artifacts, if you dont see any then you should be good. Probably also a good idea to install any security software (virus scanner/firewall/anti spyware) before setting up your games.
 
Also consider setting yourself up with a Standard User account, and fully-enabling your Data Execution Prevention like this :camera: to stop some buffer-overflow attacks. If legit programs get terminated by DEP, you can make exceptions for them (my HL2 apps do, for some reason... easily exempted, though).
