What is the program that scans all the components of the computer and let you know which one is not working correctly. I am using a PC Windows 7 64bit; I want to know if it's bad Ram or the graphic card went bad or if it's something else.

Have you tried plugging it out and back in again?

I have no idea. I'd suggest www.tested.com for this

Or you can tell us how it isn't working, with words. Or in other words, elaborate damn it.

Yo, what's going down with your PC? More info is needed.

Is it bluescreening? Are you getting screen-tearing or weird artifacts when you play games? Is there a burning smell? More importantly, have you made any recent changes to your PC?

Running Memtest86+ will help diagnose bad RAM. You can run CPU-Z and it will list all your connected components but it won't tell you outright if there's anything wrong.

One day it's working fine the next day the computer is super slow and unresponsive. This has happened a couple times already. The only way it gets fixed, If I do a clean install of windows. After that the computer will be working fine for like a month, than it will start again. Than I have to reinstall windows to fix it. It is a hassle! I scan for viruses all the time so that is not the cause of the problem. I heard of a program that scans your computer and tells you what component of your computer is defective, this is the information I need.

@iamtirrrred: Not entirely sure if that is a piece of software I'd endorse...

As a user above said, run Memtest, that should tell you if your RAM is faulty, which unless you only have like 2gb and one stick is faulty, I doubt would cause a 'super slow and unresponsive' PC.

When it starts acting up, open up Task Manager and see what's what with your processes, see how much CPU is being used etc. Again I doubt this would show anything, but try it. Run a temperature monitoring program too.

Somethings wrong with one of my laptops. Can't get the internet to working at all. It says that something is wrong with an adapter.

@Tireyo643: Be more specific. And just reinstall the device.
