graphics card testing

[galorin]

Is there a utility out there to stress-test a graphics card? I have a system with an undefined memory error and I need to find out if the error exists in the graphics card and/or system ram is to blame.

3D Mark does this, but it is not free. I believe AquaMark or PCMark or other software can test your video card. However, if it lists as an undefined memory error, it is likely your RAM and not Video memory.

Try running Memtest.

Try running the PC Pitstop tests on your machine, they check everything including graphics, and it is all free, but does require you to accept their ActiveX control. I have used their tests many times to get an overall picture of the health of various machines.
