Thanks!
They seem to run from 1.0 to 5.9. Did one guy here say he had a "Vista Score" of 44? 4.4? DSH "R. McCarty" wrote in message ... http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...enceindex.mspx "D.

Gimme a break! UAC nonsense
Good grief, attempting to refresh the Vista Score requires UAC permission. I
mean, come on! It's a benchmark people. A BENCHMARK!!! If this doesn't show that UAC is bothering us for the most trivial menial ridiculous tasks, then what does. I'm sorry, my head is about to implode from these constant UAC interruptions about the most unimportant of trivial tasks. "UAC stops unauthorized changes to your system" ... The benchmark results! The Horror! The Horror! Someone could sneak in and update the benchmark results on my PC without authorization. Thank God I'm running Vista rather than XP. With XP I used to have to sleep at night with one eye open to make sure some family member wasn't sneaking around here updating benchmark results without permission. FWIW, my numbers a CPU 4.9 (Core 2 DUO E6300) RAM 5.5 (Corsair VS DDR2) Graphics: 5.9 (ATI Radeon X800) Gaming Graphics: 4.9 (ATI Radeon X800) HD: 5.9 {3ware SATA raid or MOBO PATA, depending on what Vista things my "primary hard disk" is) Is there a site where we can compare ourselves to other users? ----------------------------------------------------------- Posted using Android Newsgroup Downloader: .... http://www.sb-software.com/android ----------------------------------------------------------- |

"Vista Score" -- Where Do We Get That?
Horse Manure!
Not Trolling -- Just Asking Quite Valid Questions. Vida infra. Adios! DSH ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Newsgroups: microsoft.public.windows.vista.general From: Date: 6 Mar 2007 12:30:41 -0800 Local: Tues, Mar 6 2007 8:30 pm Subject: Vista freeze up? I notice a few times a day, Vista Home Premium will freeze up or at least I think it is freezing up for 30 seconds or so. I notice the hard drive light is lit when this occurs. Could this be the Vista Index Service doing its thing? I have plenty of memory, a good video card and a Vista score of 44 so I don't think it's my Dell Dimension 9100. In addition, I dual boot with XP and this problem does not occur when XP is running. What do you guys think? Thanks everyone "Peter Foldes" wrote in message ... You are trolling as usual -- Peter "D.

Gimme a break! UAC nonsense
It does seem odd, but they have their reasons I'm sure. It may be just a
benchmark, but be aware that the number does affect what Windows Vista will do. One small example is that with a graphics score below 3, you use the Photo screensaver with themes. It just uses the default transitions. You can alter that by changing the XML file in which it stores the score in under c:\windows\performance\winsat... Because of that, I suppose it could be said that winsat has the potential to change the state of the operating system, and therefore needs administrative privileges. Perhaps there is another explaination. -- /* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Robert Firth * * Windows Vista x86 RTM * * http://www.WinVistaInfo.org * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * */ wrote in message ...

To me this is akin to saying I should lock up my TV remote in the safe because someone might adjust the contrast settings. ----------------------------------------------------------- Posted using Android Newsgroup Downloader: .... http://www.sb-software.com/android ----------------------------------------------------------- |

It was removed from Welcome Center main screen before RTM. But you can
click "Show more details" and it will show you the score.
