It could be because your computer will not boot due to a problem which could be either hardware of software related.<\/p>\n<p>But you don\u2019t need to spend money on expensive tools. These five free tools can help you diagnose most hardware problems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Memory Scan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s almost impossible to diagnose a problem with your computer memory (RAM) without a memory scanner. Luckily, you don\u2019t need a special hardware memory checker\u2014you can use a tool to boot your computer into a special mode which will check your memory. There are several good tools, but I recommend the open source MemTest86, which works on Intel-style 32-bit and 64-bit PCs.<\/p>\n<p>You can get MemTest86 for free from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.memtest86.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.memtest86.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. CheckDisk \/ BadBlocks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you think your hard drive has a problem, you need to check the whole drive for possible errors. If you find a few errors, you may be able to continue to use the drive as long as you re-check the drive on a regular basis. If you find a bunch of errors, you\u2019ll need to replace the drive.<\/p>\n<p>The free tool built into Windows XP and higher to check your drive is called CHKDSK (for Check Disk). Linux bootable CDs and USB drives include a similar but more comprehensive tool called badblocks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Spare Cables<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although spare cables aren\u2019t free if you buy them separately, most people who regularly buy computer accessories tend to accumulate spare cables. Don\u2019t throw out those spare cables. A surprisingly large number of hardware problems are caused by failing cables, and swapping your current cable with a spare is a simple and free way to test whether or not your problems are caused by bad cables.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/tips4pc.com\/hardware-2\/5-free-must-have-hardware-diagnostic-tools.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Article Continued Here<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><em>This excerpt appears with permission from Tips4PC.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hardwarediag.jpg\" alt=\"hardwarediag\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-43115\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These five free tools can help you diagnose most hardware problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":66012,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[834],"tags":[4457],"class_list":["post-43109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tips4pc","tag-hardware-diagnostics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
