Hello,

my question was actually simple:

I want to use the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool from a bootable media,  does anybody know of a bootable version,

maybe somebody can say yes or no, if yes then please tell me where or tell me that nobody is interested because the CPU is old,

if no that's great too

thank you

MikeS

If I were to experiment, I would try WinPE.  You "MIGHT" be able to run IPDT on WinPE.  You MIGHT NOT.
