    finding out how long your computer has been on

    i'm not sure if this is on the right forum...but...

    is there a way to check on winXP how long you've left you're computer on? cause i've left mine on for a few days now and i was just curious. i know that there's third party benchmark software out there that included this info, my friend was using it on win98 and it's not compatible with winXP...but it told ya everything about your system like how fast your were running and how long "windows" was on, or when your last reboot was...

    i was using sisoft sandra 2001te standard (i think)

    You can always go into the Event Viewer and look for the last time the event 'The Event log service was started' shows up. That's the machine coming up. Just search for event 6005 in the system log.

    There's a lot of software out there to check the uptime of your machine. Here's one appropriately called Uptime that might fit your needs. Good luck.
