I've got a few motherboards that I need to determine their operational reliability / stability while running XP, so I'm wondering if there is any free software that can do stress testing or "burn-in" operations for one or two weeks continuously running under XP.
Basically, any software that can keep a system busy doing stuff until (or if) the system crashes or locks up. Serial, parallel, network, audio and USB stress testing is not required. Some hard-drive operations (reading/writing) is also desired, but nothing that's really going to hammer the drive continuously if I'm going to run this for a week straight. Some video operations (moving a window around on the screen or some other form of typical user-type activity) would also be useful.
Anyone know of any such software?
A program called CPUBurn (not CPUburn-in) has been recommended, but I don't know if it does any hard-drive or video stressing.
