Burn In Program

[StimpE]

I've tried the burn in program from SiSoft Sandra, Passmark Burn In, and to me they don't seem to put the system through enough. Is there any programs that really puts the system to work? Thanks in advance.

Have you tried Stress Linux? http://www.stresslinux.org/

I guess I have to boot from a live cd and install this, then burn the PC in from the live linux distro?

Yeah, it's live. You just pop in the disc and boot to it, no installation necessary. Makes it possible to burn in PCs even before the OS is installed. Instructions are here.

Ok I've tried using Stress linux, here are my results:
First time I tried using the example
"stress --cpu 4 --io 2 --vm 2 --vm-bytes 128M --timeout 10s"
It worked fine.
I then tried using
"stress --cpu 10 --io 10 --vm 10 --vm-bytes 128M --timeout 300s"
The error that is returned is "Now reaping child worker process"
What do you suppose this error could be o.O

*update* Got it all working, it somehow fixed itself.
