Whats the best HW Diag toolkit for the $$$?

[HELLCAT]

Hey,

Would like to get opinions-links on the best Hardware diagnostic software for PC's.
I'm a hardware tech at a R&D firm with about 50 users running SBS, NT and 95/98 workstations. Have a few problem systems of which I suspect flakey memory and MB problems.Looking for a low level HW diagnostic toolkit that can just hammer all night and counter errors, and test for burn-ins. Any ideas and or links for the best deal out there guys?

Thanks in advance,

I like the following diagnostic softwares:

Sandrasoft-- It is great and free. Excellent benchmark and cpu diagnostics.
Checkit Pro-- It is a killer as an all around.
The Troubleshooter--It is a pc diiagnostics with burn in software. I got for free when I bought the CBT for MCSE. It is one of my favorites
cpu monitor--It is also free.
Lost and Found-- Recovery Data
Pc Hard Drive Mechanic-- Excellent to diagnose problems with bad sectors.
You should keep copies of:
partition Magic, Ghost, Norton Utilities(disk doctor)or Spinrite (especially for all hard drives).

Not to mention Fix-It 99 Utilities which comes bundled with PowerDesk, the best file manager ever produced.
