Iain Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I've been given an old copy of this program, or rather the relevant files on a 3.5" floppy (the previous owner has upgraded). I know that has to be run from a bootable CD and, when I try to run PC Check from the command screen, it confirms this fact for me. I have Nero and can create a bootable CD but how do I specify that it should launch Pccheck.exe rather than one of the other .exe files on the floppy that I have?

Iain Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Thank you - I'll look into that. I did a sort of workaround. I used Nero to create a bootable CD and added all the files from the PC Check directory. When I booted to the CD, it gave me a DOS prompt from which I changed the drive to D: and then I could run PC Check. It would be easier if I can get autorun.inf to work. Looks like a bit of homework for over the Christmas period! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt {Undead} Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 The net has a number of diagnostic tools out there, if you search around im sure you will find pc check in there somewhere. I got v6 atm, good for testing all parts and doing stress tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted December 25, 2006 Author Share Posted December 25, 2006 Yes, PC Check comes from Eurosoft and costs £150+ depending upon which package is needed. The most recent version is 6.05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
