Regarding Laptop Tests

[Supratim9621]

Hi, I purchased a laptop Asus XXX30D via Flipkart and I received it today. So please tell me what should I run and what tests should I do on the laptop to make sure it is not faulty.

I normally don't use tests to see if a new laptop is working.
First I do a boot test which is simply putting in the battery in the laptop if it not sealed and the plugging it in and switching it on. I see how long it takes for the laptop to take me to the setup screen. Then after it has got there I check the general performance by moving the mouse left and right on the trackpad to make sure it is working. This is of course after it has installed a lot of win updates.

Second I open up some default programs to make sure that the hdd is working.

Third I open up the default browser and see how well a youtube video plays. This should test the screen and the speakers. Also you can plug in headphones to see if the audio jack is working. Then I generally open up a few tabs in chrome or a browser of your choice to see how well the cpu deals with multi threaded programs

I would say download a game but that laptop is not made to game.

If everything works well then brilliant.
