The title doesnt make a lot of sense, but basically, is there a kind of prime95-esque program which can test stability which i can run from a CD like i can with memtest86 - ie before windows starts (windows takes ages to load on this machine)?
If not i'll get over it, but I thought that there was probably one out there, though I wasnt really sure what to google 'stability test cd' gives a load of shoddy results!
[e!] ok futher googling pointed me to a thread all about putting pirme95 on a floppy... then i found http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ and that'll do me fine
