I'm having a whole slew of problems and can't figure out what the gently caress is going on. Are there any good programs to run diagnostics on your hardware? I need to test my hard drives, sound card, video card, motherboard, CPU and RAM. I ran the nVidia system test program and didn't come up with any issues, but considering how poorly my computer is working that doesn't seem possible.

Really? when i touch the screen on my LCD, it is way hotter than if I touched the screen on my CRT.

Well, the backlight on a LCD is right up against the screen. The hot part of the CRT is in the rear, there's a open area where the beams shoot through, then the screen. If you were to open up the CRT and put your hand right on the hot part, it'd be at least as hot as your LCD.
