3D Test fail in Windows XP Pro

[AdmiralK71]

Hello,

I have a question about an error message I received in burn in test. The error says that the 3D test was interrupted it occured only once and the test finished. Here is the full test log that was saved.

Any ideas as to what might cause this error?

[David (PassMark)]

The 3D test can be interrupted if the system goes into a sleep state during the test, or the user closes the 3D test window. If the 3D test is the fullscreen non-windowed test, then the test can be interrupted by Alt-tabbing out of the 3D context.

This is not a 3D subsystem error, but rather a flag that the test did not run for the full period. Once the 3D test is interrupted, it does not restart - hence you will only see one occurance of this error message.

Ian

Ok, thank you for the reply. I tested the system again overnight and it passed with out any problems.
