When buying a used computer, what is the best passageway to run a diagnostics check?

I'm within a situation where I might enjoy the ability to buy several used computers. What is the best approach to check to make sure everything is functioning properly assuming the operating system is Windows XP? If nearby are several ways, what is the quickest and what is the best? I'd like to know the quickest because I want to know how to run some kind of diagnostics check on the spot past I buy it. I want to know the best way, so I can know everything is okay in the past reselling it.



Thank you.
