What Will Happen If I Rebooted My Pc 60 Times Consecutively? - Burn your Hardware

wutske
just out of curiousity since everybody seems to think something different ... rebooting = turning of the power or simply hitting the reset button ?

I have tried this on my machine. How tough is your toy? Yes, it compensates an improvement -the opposite way you thought would it be.

booting and rebooting, just turning on the your pc and pressing reset button just right after the cursor appears to load the OS.

But whats the point of doing that? wouldn't you rather go to a nice picturesque and enjoy it? or drink some beer instead and leave the stupid computer which only understand 0 and 1 alone? biggrin.gif

There is absolutely no way this can improve your computer... If you push the reset then you do nothing else but clearing every register (caches, memories, ...) in your computer, it doesn't change a thing (in fact, if you turn on your computer, every device receive the reset signal until the clock generators are up and running ...).

Do you have some concrete evidence of that? Have you performed various performance tests to measure the improvement? Is it faster during start-up, or throughout the entire computing session?

These are some factors that could be used to prove your point further, if you wish. Otherwise, my opinion is that this is a waste of time and will degrade your system components.

I might think of trying that... maybe after I find many ways of giving it viruses. Then I will try to upload a ton of spam and maybe install a lot of spyware.

When I am than trying to reboot 60 times, I think I will unplug the PC, and then take the tower outside and then bash it a few times with a sledgehammer.

You know, at first, I think I was just trying to be a smart (you know what) but I would see my brother in law doing just that. I would think it may be a good idea to try to see what your PC will do, but it is pointless and just a waste of time...

Back to the smashing part, I would like to have a PC that I could do that to... maybe the old 3.1 system I used to use at work...

That was a nice little vent entry... have fun, reboot many times and hope you don't kill ya system.

Namely, you will try killing the hardware withou giving the operating system a chance to wakeup.

Having to reboot my system for 60 times over and over is more than testing your hardware stability using third-party software like 3DMark, CineBench, etc. Here you can evaluate or conclude your system in 'real world' stressing to the max. No, it won't kill your hardware.

I destroyed my partition table when rebooting 60 times over and over again (actually my 2nd batch of rebooting 60 times).

    reseating all the cables. I wasn't paying attention and forced the hard drive cable in (I know,
    stupid thing to do especially for me). I'm usually more careful, but now the extra "pin" (maybe
    a ground) at the end is broken and stuck into the wrong side of the hard drive. I put it in the
    correct way now minus that "ground" pin at the end (which is still stuck on the other si....

    Story of a very happy dial-up user (4)
    Hello all. I recently bought a serial modem for use with my Linux installation, and thought I would

    by telling you that I live only four miles from the largest city in my county (10,000 people). The

    regarding temperature going into the red zones. That prompted me to open up the cabinet and perform
    maintenance and cleaning etc. Intel's Active Monitor which was installed from the accompanying
    Driver CD notified me about this. This led me to a search for similar software and I'd like

    working on my computer so more than 2 people can surf the net at once. Unfortunately, it didn't
