Ciao!

I think it worked with the executable that szalay_1 sent me and I thank you again. ;) I don't know if the test times are regular, in my case about 40 seconds pass between the initial screen and the completion screen, but I have launched the test many times and it has always been successful. :) https...

The console works perfectly but in the next few days I will check the RAM with the a...
