Hi!

   Sorry for asking an off-topic question, but I am kind of in a tight
situation. Does anyone know of a hardware testing tool that can be booted
of a floppy or a CD and do some basic hardware checks on the CPU, Memory
and Hard drives and see if they are not faulty. Any OS would do ?

Thanks for your time and sorry once again.

-Pranav
