I am looking for a half decent hardware burn-in utility for Win NT.

Something that I can test CPU, Video, Ports, Memory, Disk etc
and let it run for 24 hours on a new system to burn it in.

Is anyone aware of such a utility for Win NT? I have dozens
for the old DOS O/S but have not been able to find any for
NT.

Post or e-mail me at:

MS diagnostics software comes with NT. It creates bootable floppy. After
re-booting it displays NT compatibility of your hardware components. Will it
help?

No need to do so, as reliability is far better than in the good old DOS
years. Best case you do no harm, worst case you shorten lifetime
(remember, parts fail as soon as warranty's over).
