Default PC Scan tools?

Is there somewhere a decent free software solution that scans your pc on errors and also corrects them?

If you haven't checked your hard drive for errors I'd recommend you to do that first.

And if you're not familiar with "Chkdsk" check instructions here: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP

Indeed this is a nice program (AWC) but it doesn't help with hardware errors...I'm curious to know which program Marcel uses for these kind of errors.
A colleague told me this week he used Fresh Diagnose (7.82) It has a nice interface and includes some benchmarks (Freeware) (Don't use the Dutch interface: really bad translations unless you understand: "middelen van de hardware")
Of course software can fix only a very limited part of hardware errors, they don't install a mini pc technician in your pc... too bad though.

Edit: Tried the Freshdiagnostic tool myself now and as the title says, it's just a diagnostic tool. On my pc I had to end it through taskmanager, it didn't respond on normal exit functions
