CPU dummy load testers are used to debug (check connections) on motherboards.
There are two types.
One does this by having its own power source, a small 3 volt cell and a bank of LED' s that indicate if the CPU socket is connected to northbridge chip , etc , correctly (short, open , ok).
The other acts as a breakout board which makes pin connections more accessible so allowing test probes better access.
It also saves you damaging your real CPU on a bad board when repairing and testing.

Where can one find companies that provide electrical testing in Edmonton?
Several companies, such as Eaton Canada and PCA Valence Engineering Technologies have electrical testing centers in Edmonton. These centers have a wide variety of testing equipment, such as transistor testers, circuit board testers and load testers.
How do you UNCHARGE a capacitor?
Connect it, in series, to a resistor or a dummy load and a switch. And then throw the switch.
Why is it safer to overclock a CPU by changing the multiplier?
because it reduces the load....

Why do eBay pages cause high CPU load in the Opera web browser?
Try selecting "Opt Out" to get out of the new eBay beta style, as this has been shown to cause high CPU load in older computers.
Why does your computer mouse hesitate?
It might do that for a number of reasons: # Your CPU is slow to load # Your monitor is slow to load # Your computer might be loading something

What is load average in Linux?
Classically, UNIX systems have calculated the load average by counting the number of processes that are either running on the CPU or runnable (ready & waiting for a CPU to run them). Linux does this, but it also counts the number of processes in uninterruptable sleep. Uninterruptable sleep usually means a process is blocking on I/O (waiting for disk, etc.). As such, you can't really use a Linux host's load average to determine the CPU utilization of the host. If the load is high you might have an I/O problem instead of a CPU bottleneck. Then you need tools like vmstat, top, iostat, etc. to tell you what is actually going on. This doesn't mean load average is useless, though. From a monitoring standpoint it's something that can tell you at a glance that something is wrong. Just remember that higher load averages aren't necessarily bad. If your 16 CPU machine has a load of 16 that might just mean it's being fully utilized.
What are the cable testers that you can use to perform testing?
Tone generators and amplifier probes, Continuity testers, wire-map testers, and cable-certification testers.

Can any power supply be used on a Pentium 4 processor?
Yes, almost every PSU has enough power to supply a P4 CPU. It depends on the total load, not only on the CPU.
