Display of core hardware components of a PC with a few tests for the monitor, CPU and memory.
Dr. Hardware is a hardware diagnostics tool which displays information about a PC and its components. It appears to only be available in German for now.
The program's main interface is divided into different sections that include hardware, devices, Windows, Tests and Tools and a couple more.
With that said, its functionality include the display of several system properties such as hardware information. System components are divided up into System Summary, Scan and Update Driver, Mainboard, CPU, BIOS, Memory and more.
Each tab contains details about connected hardware like its name, speed, serial number, vendor and others. It takes a few seconds for the information to be called up and displayed. It appears to use the Windows API to gather system information.
The tools included are rating-test, keyboard test, monitor test, green test, a CPU monitor and a BIOS viewer.
Overall, Dr. Hardware does not much more than display basic information about your hardware along with a few tests.
