Hardware Diagnostics



Also posted on I.redhat

Hi, i'm running FC4 2.16 i386 on a 1.8 Celeron with 512mg ram.

Recently I noticed that my Gigabyte DVD reader/writer was having trouble reading dvds, after ruling out the possibility that the disc might be faulty, is it possible that there might be a componant of the drive that is malfunctioning?

I want to know if there are any diagnostic tools installed or can download to check if the drive is faulty or not?

Many Thanks,
Greg
