    advice on burn in software

    Hi All

    I think my video card GT 240 has compatability issues with AMD 870 board. It crashes with message the nvidia drivers has recovered. It worked fine on my earlier 6150 board.

    I am looking for a burn in software for video card and full machine. The former is more important though.

    Can somebody direct me to some good software pls ?
    thanks !

    So you want to see this error message more often? Wouldn't it be better to try and fix the issue - starting with updating the drivers

    As a general rule - computers don't need to be burnt in. They either boot up or they don't.
    If you're happy and you know it......it's your meds.

    I already contacted MSI tech support and he gave me a case #. Meanwhile, he asked me to try the beta drivers and if it does not work, I will RMA the card.
    But, rather then sitting on the computer whole day waiting for the crash, I'd prefer to run the burn in test and make it happen asap if it has to happen. I have already wasted a day trying to figure this out

    Here's one, it's not free and I've never used it but if you're determined to get a software you could check this out:

    Personally, I'd install a game, high graphic one and play it for a few hours. You'd then know if the video card was working correctly or not.
