PassMark Software heeft een update voor versie 8.1 van BurnInTest uitgebracht. Dit programma zet de verschillende onderdelen van de computer flink aan het werk om zo de betrouwbaarheid en stabiliteit van het systeem te beproeven. De software is beschikbaar in een standaardversie en een professionele editie, en van beide is zowel een 32bit- als een 64bit-uitvoering te downloaden. De professionele editie biedt extra testmogelijkheden voor tapedrives en parallelle, seriële en usb-poorten. Daarnaast zijn de geheugentests in de Pro-versie uitgebreider. Meer informatie over de onderlinge verschillen is hier te vinden. Sinds build 1013 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Changes in version 8.1 build 1018Changes in version 8.1 build 1017
- Fixed a bug with detecting and starting serial port tests when running in WinPE on some systems
- Changed the behaviour of the raw disk test when running in WinPE to be the same as running in a full version of Windows, now the RAW disk test will run on a disk that contains partitions unless there are windows files detected.
- Fixed a possible long wait for system information sometimes when launching BurnInTest
Changes in version 8.1 build 1016
- Fixed a bug where the USB error count could be reset during a test cycle
- Fixed a bug when scripting multiple reboots was not always processing each reboot correctly
- Changed the "Butterfly test skipped" warning message to information level so it is logged but not counted as a warning
- Changed the default sample period for temperature collection to 10 seconds (from 1 second). This can prevent crashes on some systems where frequent temperature polling can cause a device driver crash.
Changes in version 8.1 build 1015
- Added a benchmark test phase as part of the USB3 test to report maximum USB3 speed obtainable
- Added USB3 low level error reporting to the trace level log
- Support for USB3 V2.0 firmware. Which amoung other improvements brings higher USB throughput.
- Added new error message to 2D test when EMC + test pattern test is selected and only 1 monitor is present
- Added OBEX FTP transfer type to bluetooth test
- Made some changes to disk test to skip butterfly test when running Cylic pattern and an SSD is detected
- Fixed a bug where the advanced net test window was not updating the statistics when running the test on a teamed group of network cards. Sent/Recv is now displayed but load and load balancing is not available (missing performance counters).
Changes in version 8.1 build 1014
- Now filtering "Bluetooth" named network cards from "All available ethernet" and "All available 802.11" network test options
- Now filtering "Microsoft Virtual" adapters from all network test options to ignore "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" and "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter"
- Removed whitespace padding in some HTML output
- Fixed a bug with management console initial connect not sending all the system information sometimes
- Updated system information library, fixes a bug that was preventing some NVMe hard drive temperatures from being read
- PCIe test changed to be compatible with PCIe firmware version 2.0.1000.0. PCIe cards with older firmware version will need to use an older build of BurnInTest or have their firmware updated
- Changed a GPGPU error to show an error code where available
- Added unique error message when failing to play back MP3 file for sine wave tone in 2D reference test pattern
- Fixed a crash in the 2D EMC - scrolling characters test when there were more than 4 monitors connected to a system (test still only supports 4 monitors)
- Fixed a bug when using the plugin option "Ignore no operations" with pre-test plugins could see a "no operations" error still occur during the normal test phase (after the pre test plugins had finished)
- Changed text box contents on pass/fail window to pass or fail to assist automated scripting programs getting the result
- Filtered out Microsoft virtual adapters "Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter" and "Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter" from network test
- Fixed a bug when the webcam test was used in a script that would prematurely end the main tests
