This nifty little program lets you get under the hood of your operating system. It contains a package of tools to analyze all your Windows components. Like other system tools, it makes inquiries into your Registry settings; beyond that, it makes calls to your processor, cache, memory modules, chip sets, and monitor. It also makes independent calls to your BIOS and I/O ports, helping you detect conflicts that are independent of your OS. Finally, the program tells you the benchmark of your computer.
Its depth of analysis separates Dr. Hardware from its competitors. It provides information about SDRAM modules; sensor chips and main-board chip set; and any type of device your PC might have, whether it's SCSI, EIDE, or PCI. It also provides benchmarks for the CPU, the video adapter, and CD-ROM and DVD drives. This latest release detects the latest processors, PCI devices, and main-board chip sets.
Despite Dr. Hardware's sophistication, its interface is surprisingly intuitive. Don't let the clean interface fool you into thinking the program is a lightweight–it packs a punch, and at $19, it really is shareware at its best.
