So I just finished my new system build Friday evening only to realize that I forgot to buy an OS. Oops!
Meanwhile, I have 64 bit Ubuntu running on it, but can't get Prime95 or Mprime to work. My question is, If I install Windows XP SP3 32 bit and run Prime95 32 bit, will it be able to fully test my processor and make sure it runs without fault? I don't care so much about the memory testing aspect as that was handled with Memtest86+.
(Relevant) Specs are:
Intel DZ77GA-70k Extreme Motherboard
Intel i5-3570k
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 RAM (2x4GB)
Thanks!
