How do you run that program? When I was running it it was keeping running tests on and on. Is that right?

Thanks

That is correct, it will keep looping until you hit escape. You should also run the extended tests in the configuration menu.

Thanks a lot, ChampionAtTofuShop.

I think I'm going to run some of those tests tonight. My computer has really slowed down a LOT lately, and I think maybe something is wrong with the CPU or the power supply.

Soory about that TUF Shop. I was wondering why anyone would want to be a champion at a Tofu Shop. LOL

Hey GermyBoy, are your slow downs when you try and open stuff? Like 5-10 second delays on opening My Computer?

Microsoft released a patch that has that side effect. Its Hotfix Q811493. There was a thread where someone posted about it and it turned out to be my problem. I uninstalled it and my system that I about to reload because it was behaving so poorly, woke back up and is responsive again.

Here is the pertinent info from that thread originally posted by redbeard1....
