ASTRA32 4.21 – System Information Tool for Windows

ASTRA32 – Advanced System Information Tool for Windows, featuring hardware diagnostics and device detection. An ideal solution for providing comprehensive information about your system’s configuration.

ASTRA32 provides a detailed analysis of your system, offers diagnostics, and includes powerful, distinctive features such as a Drivers Troubleshooter and a quick HDD Health Status checker. You will appreciate the accuracy with which ASTRA32 acquires information about detected devices, as it generally refers directly to the hardware rather than the Windows Registry.

Trust ASTRA32 for precise system information. It uncovers even undocumented data, providing accurate details on computer hardware and operational modes that are reliable regardless of your installed drivers.

ASTRA32 has a unique feature (Drivers Troubleshooter) that allows searching for all physical devices and creates a list of all devices whose drivers are not properly installed or are completely missing.

ASTRA32 also tests your hard drive for reliability and provides a diagnosis using a unique algorithm. Its quick HDD Health Status Checker function keeps you informed, letting you know if your hard drive is healthy or if it’s time to create a backup, ensuring you’re aware of all contingencies. Notably, ASTRA32 works even with hard drives connected to external UDMA/SATA/RAID controllers, including reading HDD SMART data. The program further provides detailed information about all USB and SCSI devices.
