Vista WEI score

**lancer** · September 21st, 2006

I was wondering what everyone was getting.

On my main home computer, which is a little naf, my score was 3.6

interesting, i wonder who has the highest score.

**ElementalDragon** · September 21st, 2006

i'll have to check mine and post later. not sure if i feel like rebooting at this point in time.

edit? just checked my score. 4.5. would probably be higher if i had another stick of 1GB DDR2 800, and a slightly faster CPU, seeing as my scores for graphics, gaming graphics, and hard disk space were 5.9, 5.9, and 5.4 respectively.

I got a 4.4.

**SPeedY_B** · September 22nd, 2006

1.0, I am the winnar!

All thanks to an unsupported Radeon card

lordfeng · September 22nd, 2006

4.3.... will tweak vi give me a boost on my 3.2ghz p4 cpu?

**Electronic Punk** · September 22nd, 2006

2 on my laptop
3.2 on my test rig

Hasn't got near my main one yet

**SPeedY_B** · September 22nd, 2006

It would only score a 2.4 anyway. *runs orf*

**Electronic Punk** · September 22nd, 2006

i would obviously be forced to cry if that happened, I suspect it can cope with Vista though.

**SPeedY_B** · September 22nd, 2006

Yeah... with all the effects turned off, and put into "Classic".

**Mainframeguy** · September 22nd, 2006

for people like me with our heads in the sand...

here is the link to the place for the tool to score yourself... now I shall give it a try...
[edit] Doh! I am ready, look slike it is bye bye DriveImage time and need to put that Audigy card in... BUT I get no score - what are you running to get a score? I just get a big tick.... [/edit]

**ming** · September 22nd, 2006

erm.. can someone put me in the right direction... Didn't MS say the scoring system is meant to be between 1 and 5?
If so, where does 5.5 come into the equation?

you mean that is your score? Otherwise I would suggets it comes into the equation with photoshop

**Electronic Punk** · September 22nd, 2006

Photoshop?

**X-Istence** · September 22nd, 2006

No, just a bug.

**madmatt** · September 22nd, 2006

My test box scored a whopping 1.0 because of "gaming graphics".

CPU: 4.2
RAM: 4.5
Graphics: 1.9
Gaming Graphics: 1.0
HDD: 5.3

**ming** · September 22nd, 2006

no... i dont mean the final score... but the subcategories... they're supposed to be in-line with the final score, so how can your HD score be 5.5 (EP) and 5.3 (Matt)?

I would love to try, however on my new pc (all parts except the harddrive are new as of a month ago) does not suppot the upgrade advisor cause I am running 64-bit XP. I also took another older harddrive, 10gig, and tried the 32-bit vista RC1 but it crashes on install but not my buddy who used th esame DVD, and the 64-bit RC1 says the harddrive is too small to even try installing.
