Jul 23, 2009 Rating Burn-in of new compontets by: Support Hello Lee, Back in the old days components were not a reilable as they are today so it was recommended to do a 'burn in' for 24 hours. Now days this is not necessary, you can however do a 24 hour burn-in on your computer just by leaving it run for 24 hours. If however you want to run tests and benchmarks on the new computer you can find programs on the web to do these tests. Most of these test will run in DOS not Windows or any other higher level Operating System becaus these Operating Systems prevent direct access to the hardware. If you need to know how to make a bootable disk see my how to section, it is all there. Good luck with your new computer!

Jul 23, 2009 Rating Burning in a new computer by: marley Lee well done for your first time in building your first computer good for you At this time don?t take any notice of your mate. You can just set it up using windows XP or VISTA or any other OS you wish to use then give it a run and format. It again then reset it up again and then put on the drivers that came with the motherboard don?t forget to set the computer to boot form CD Rom or DVD Rom then when it is all dun set it up to boot from hard drive. And don?t forget to back it up on to disc of some sort use ghost or Acronis they are both very good and will do what you ask them to do. Take care and take your time.
