Unable to Get WEI Rating

[master007]

I have tried it before on windows 7 beta Build 6xxx x64 and now again when i installed windows 7 RC build 7100 x64 I'm unable to get the WEI rating.

Both time, I got an error when the progress bar for the procedure completes.

I have installed latest nvidia drivers which support windows 7

I ran that also via cmd(as admin) using command winsat formal -v

open Windows event viewer see that if any error is Listed there. posting the screen shot would be nice.

[master007]

nope, using windows 7 only for it (btw vista is on a triple boot setup)

What display driver are you using?
Is it a WDDM driver?

i dont know, i downloaded driver version 186.18 from nvidia.com. i selected the option for windows seven 64-bit.

use windows update to update the driver and try.

Have you PINNACLE STUDIO or something like that installed?
That was my problem too for many tries to get WEI running til the end.
I uninstalled the pinnacle software and that was the deal.

Hello Master007, welcome.

Can you open Device Manager? Look around there and see if anything is not recognized etc.

There is no option for any display drivers update in windows update. Should I install the test updates. (Attached the screenshot)

No, never installed that. The only softwares I installed are
NVIDIA Drivers
Ares
GOM Player
KMPlayer
ESET NOD32
WinRAR
Flashget
PowerISO
uTorrent
Office 2010 Technical Preview
Nitro PDF x64
Opera, Firefox

Btw, i tried updating WEI after installing NVIDIA drivers only.

Thanks buddy. There is nothing unrecognized in there except for the floppy drive showing up which I don't have. Attached the screenshot

Install all the updates that you have on there.

After that, go into DM and update drivers from there.

Installed all the updates & all the device drivers are up-to-date. Still the problem persists.
Has it anything to do with that Floppy Disk Drive being disabled

Interesting. I doubt the floppy is causing it though.

Strange......... Try this: Open cmd as an admin, and type "sfc /scannow"

Result:
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

Alright. Pop in your install (seven) disk, and select Setup. Choose Repair Install, and let it work.

could not find repair install option, not after booting the dvd nor after running it from my computer.
so did a complete reinstall after formatting. still the problem persists

I had this problem before and all I could find to fix it was change the RC Key. I don't know why that would affect anything, as it was activated, but changing the Key solved my problem. :shock:

Tried it. Changed the key twice. Still the problem is there.
I said error appears at last and the last task of the procedure is Assessing Disk Performance, can the problem be at this part? btw i've installed it in a 50GB partition & free disk space on it is about 31GB
