    Dual Core CPU 2.0 showing only 2.2 in WEI


    Lately running WEI index my dual core 2.0 cpu has started showing as 2.2 which is bringing down my WEI score, I am not sure what it was before.

    Any Idea's ?

    Thanks for your time

    so not the overall wei but the processor itself is 2.2?

    dual core should be average of 5 so something may be wrong.

    have u noticed a performance decrease?

    Hi thanks for the quick replies.
    It's a Dell Inspiron 1720 Laptop. 4gig Crucial Ram,
    It's been running fine upto now, not changed any drivers, I was running a dual Boot system, with 32bit Premium and 32bit Ultimate, in the Premium install it started showing 2.2 for cpu and in the Ultimate install it was something like 4.4.
    I cant say I have noticed an degradation of performance.
    I have since deleted the Ultimate install. But Wei is still showing 2.2.
    in device manager it is showing 2 cpu's and in the perfomance tab it is showing 2 cpu's also.
    Thanks again for your time.
