Repeatedly Crashed my system (WindowsXP Home with SP2) upon first execution.then worked fine once or twice but since then has Repeatedly Crashed my system Even after selecting only three tests to run.My Machine seems to takes longer to boot up. Time to be Uninstalled i think.

#56 says: "Wonder how many people read the license agreement which states that his is only a 30 day trial.(Is this trial only with this specific software or with all the offered software?)"

56, you have to watch the dates. Each program is only free for one day, you have to download, install and activate all on the same day of the free offer. After the free 24 hrs is gone then each program reverts to the trial version. Only the current day's offering is free with no limitations or trial versions, the rest of the software listed is just to show you what was previously offered. Astra32 was offered on 12/20, you posted on 12/22 so you missed that free offer.

Please reactivate it again for few hours...I got program, but can't activate it.

Great tool. It gives you more information that you will need.Thanks

Astra was was a very valuable tool to me. I found that my hard disk was operating at only a 47% rate and I lost my backup hard drive abut two months ago and had not replaced. I was able to get a backup drive today and will install it tomorrow.

Nice initiative.Wonder how many people read the license agreement which states that his is only a 30 day trial.(Is this trial only with this specific software or with all the offered software?) Or maybe my understanding of these things (EULA) is insufficient. Wouldn't be the first time. Would be nice if it had a search function that searched for your searchwords in online movie databases.If I would type an actors name it would list the movies made by that actor and you would be able to add these to your database collection from the list by (un)checking the title.Would really increase the speed of adding titles.Maybe in a future version. Will recommend the site.Keep it up.

Wow!!! Lots of "thank you", guys at www.giveawayoftheday.com!!!
Really thank you! I was gladly surprised as I stepped upon this page right now and saw yesterday's giveaway being offered again!
Thanks! You've done it!

Astra32 downloaded successfully and appears to be very useful diagnostic tool. Lists all my computer systems and components correctly, so far as I can tell at this time. After downloading, I deleted all but the main icon, which remains on my desktop, ready for use as needed. No problems! Thanks.

program stinks. not only does it give false info about pc which it does.i have brand new hard drive tested and re tested and still gives msg. hhd failure and other bogus msg. not only that the program freezes pc where control alt delete dont work.

Antonio and others, yes, that's what we will do today -relaunch both giveaways for 5 more hours.
Astra32 starts at 7 pm PST.

I lost it due to the time issue at your servers. Could you please let it available for the same time it was NOT available due to the time issue? I mean, for an additional 5 hours period (and announce) it, please!?!?? Maybe other people experienced the same problem I did.
Thanks.

The problem with giveaway timing was caused by server restart in the remote datacenter. Admins restart the server due to database's low performance and forgot to check the system date after restart, hence the giveaway ended 5 hours earlier than usual.
We apologize for this inconvenience.

Detection works ok. 3-4 minutes after showing the results-screeen it hangs the whole system...

The software use to be available till 3 am my time (I usually download it late night)...what happened today..its only 1 am, and its no longer there?

it is 8:45pm in arizona and the giveaway is over without a current giveaway

Works fine for me....No crashes....nice proggie...Thanx...keep up the good work

The big problem is that when it is detecting what is on your computer, it takes a long time. Not only does it take a long time, it takes lots of system memory so everything goes slow and freezes up. You have to give it some time, especially on it's first run.

Works FINE for me...no crashes etc.......Thanx...nice program

This is a fantastic program that gives me more info about my computer than I ever dreamed there was. I checked the health of all three HDD's on my main system and was horrified to find that all three were "bad" and was advised to back up everything because the HDD's were very likely to breakdown. I checked the program on one of my other computers and those HDD's were fine, so just in case this info isn't a glitch, I've already ordered two big HDD's. (as a Christmas present to myself)
Has anyone else had the same message about their HDD's?

I'll probably buy this program once I have everything reinstalled. As well as some of the earlier giveaways such as Flash Paste and the note pad from the other day.

Keep up the good work Giveaway team. Thanks for some fantastic programs.

Any suggestions for a compression utility program?

Great tool! Puts all the system information that I need right at my fingertips. This is a program that everyone should have.

Worked fine here. Seems nice, but unless I can check the temperature with it (which I didn't see a way to do, but I didn't look that hard on my first and only run) I can't replace the earlier program I used.

I've tried a lot of these "sysinfo" programs -- this is the most comprehensive one I've used. Excellent! This goes *way* beyond what you'll find in Windows System Manager. Thanks, GotD!

Crashed my system (WindowsXP Home with SP2) upon first execution. Machine now takes 4 times as long to boot up. Removed Astra32 & rebooted. Still trying to get system back to previous state.

Tried on XP pro sp2 computer (Athlon 64 processor).
Was not able to use my dial-up connection anymore after installation and after using the software. Had to restore computer before installation to get my connection back. Software was uninstalled.
I do not recommend to use that software.

Also, I forgot to mention to "A Moontread"; the problem may be with your Compression Utility, not the file itself. If this happens regularly, you may want to try another Compression Utility program.

If you are using the Windows XP Unzip Utility, I find that to be quite annoying to use; and some .zip files, while they look the same, they may actually be a different zip-type compression.

There are, to my knowledge, three compression algorithims for .zip files, and XP only un-zips one.

You can try searching this site for a new Utility, and if you only want to Un-Zip .zip files, then I reccomend 7-zip. However, this program is extremely slow at Compressing .zip files.

Iam having a big problem with these downloads. I am asked to register with a registration code and my downloads are only trial versions for 30 days. Anyone know how to bypass this or how to solve this problem. Also can these downloads be burned onto CD's so they don't eat all of our memory on our PC's? Thank you for your help!

This is an excellent way to gain popularity for your site. Bravo. Plus, the programs offered aren't junk like many of the other programs I have tried. It was a few days ago I downloaded a program from this site that fixed my problem in minutes, unlike my old program which was very buggy and malfunctioned often. I will say this is one excellent success for me, you, and everyone else who comes here. I have informed my friends of your offers and they say they will come regularly too. Keep this up and you'll be the top download site on the web. Go for it! Beat Download.com!

Downloaded it, installed it, run it, and it made my system not stabil, run it again and it restarted my computer just like that.

After bootup complete opened add or remove programs and unistalled ASTRA32.

Never worked, it crashed (blue screen) my system 3 times = UNINSTALLED

I get 'No Zip file, bad Zip file or part of a spanned/split Zip file' pop-up with cursor-over, and corrupt file error when trying to install (from either server download). This happened with a couple of other zips last week.

Blue Screen of Death on 1st run. Uninstalled

To #25 - I saw that too.. activation and installation in one step. I guess they got tired of having to keep explaining over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, lol. Nice software, should definitely come in handy!

Im a computer geek. Im even more of a geek now with this software installed. I love reading all the technical details down to the last bit.

Thanks for this impressive software. I feel like Christmas has already arrived.

Worked fine for me. Also, looks like their making installations more 'idiot' proof; no need to run activate as a separate step anymore :P

can i? xp?

This is an excellent Giveaway of the Day! The software works great on my system and provided me with a wealth of information, some of which was completely unknown before. Thank you for this!

Mine errors saying invalid key when I try to install the software, any ideas?

Repeatedly crashed system. Even after selecting only three tests to run. Uninstalled.

HUh?
