    I am looking to get all the software needed to do full diagnostic tests on everything on my PC to make sure there are no issues.



    Is there a "suite" download available that includes all diagnostic tools that I would need?

    I will randomly lose input from my monitor. I tried different monitors and cables, updated gpu drivers, updated bios and verified it is not a heat issue.

    The other problem is that my sound will work fine and then 10 minutes later it will start to sound really crackly and distorted.

    Can you tell us a little more about your machine?Make and model operating system?

    Also have you updated your graphics card drivers and uninstalled your audio driver and rebooted?

    How about re-seating all of your hardware components?

    Yeah I did that.

    I got the issue again..

    Detailed Information:

    When in a game, I will randomly lose input on the monitor. The sound will go crackly and then I won't hear anything and then I will hear it again for about 2-5 seconds. (The sound is from the game). -- and then I am forced to restart the computer by hitting the reset button
