I'd like to put this thing through a few paces over the holiday to try to burn out any marginal components. What's your favorite thrasher? What program or suite do you run to really test the limits of a new hardware setup? It's a 386 box running DOS 4, if that helps (or limits) any. I'll summarize responses and re-post, since there are surely others out there who wonder about this too from time to time. Thanks for any help.
