I need a software that knows which of my hardware is faulty.

preferably free please.?

Phantom^Phreak asked:


I don’t know much about fixing hardware but know the basic parts like the mobo, hard disk, and others. I do not even know how to build a computer.
Is there a specific error code or sound that the computer displays during a hardware failure?

Hi, im looking for a new computer, and was comparing hardware specs. I wanted to know whats more important to look at, a processor speed with a 1066mhz fsb or ram with a speed of 1066 vs 800 for the ram or 800 for the processor? For an example a 2.0ghz 1066fsb vs 4gb at 800. or 2.0ghz 800fsb vs 4gb 1066. Sorry if im not making sense. Please educate me!!!

I just got a new motherboard, rams and cpu and wanted to setup my new computer with my old case and battery. this happened. “i turned on the computer, the fan go off in a sec, then off. i switch on and off the battery. same thing happen over and over. if i put the computer to rest for a while and try it. it suddenly works, then i turned it off, setup my harddrive and turn it back on, same thing happen again.
i will layout my hardware setup now

i have a APEVIA with AC INPUT:115/230V and DC OUTPUT 500W
i used to use this battery with a cheap motherboard with AGP HD3200 graphic card and P4 cpu and run with about 512mb to 1GB memory. it works fine.

my new setup is a motherboard GIGABYTE MA785GMT-UD2H supporting AM3 & DDR3 1666+
i put in 2 XMS3 4GB 2×2GB DDR3 memory card, so 4GB memory.
my new CPU is an AMD Athlon II X4 620 multi-core i think it’s 4 cores processor.

is my 500w battery able to handle that? or is that the definite reason why my computer is going wrong at the startup?
P.S. other than what’s necessary, i did not put any other hardware in my new system, like soundcard, graphic card, etc.. does the new cpu and motherboard really need that much W?
wow.. thxz for your useless answers to my questions

Juan asked:


You see, I want to go into something that relates to computer hardware like fixing and building them. Once I finish college I want to go into the Computer Engineering field. For now though I want to know if there is any chance for me to get a job in fixing or building them as a first year college student.

I have a w650a gateway laptop and I’m running Vista Home Premium. One day my computer crashed and I had to format the computer and install the operating system back into the computer. Well I noticed how a lot of my USB ports and other hardware wasn’t working. So I spent a few days getting everything back on. I got everything to work besides one thing. Right above my keyboard I have a control panel type thing with buttons that should light up that would open windows media center, it also has a play and pause button, a stop button, a rewind button, a fast forward button, a mute button and a volume control line that you slide your finger on to control. I’ve been looking for drivers everywhere for this but i can’t find it. And after all of the searching the mute button works for some reason. Idk if the panel is broken or not but could some one help me find drivers or help me set it up if that’s what it needs?
