    *update*

    just registered on kaspersky forum, i could only find one thread with one post regarding this issue.

    whilst i posted a reply, somebody else joined in - so far three of us have reported the problem, let's see how long it takes for something to be done...

    You might want to try this.
    First off I switched to win 7 pro however I don't think that was the resolution, Then I disconected all but the keyboard and mouse and disabled my second monitor and just to be on the safe side I diconected secondary hard drives. (Backup and storage ). I reinstalled win 7 pro 64 bit, I let windows install important updates only,(this way I put the drivers for my motherboard,GPU's sound card,etc.etc.) myself.I installed all the drivers very carefully and checked device manager for errors and then took a good look at the event log.. All lokked good so I ran the experience index and crossed my fingers (very important ) and it worked ..7.9 across the board except for a 6.2 (hard drive) Good luck . I hope this helped

    This might also be a factor I did not put Kaspersky 2010 internet security back in my PC I bought ESET.. I haven't found anything that says that this could have been the problem and I have been using Kaspersky with win 7 since win 7 beta and the then the RC. Kaspersky 2009 was incompatable according to windows, but 2010 worked just fine and so did windows experience index with beta /RC- 2009-2010. good luck
    oh ya I'm not sure how safe Eset I security is but my downloads have speeded up a bit and less lag during game play

    it's only the very latest version of kis that is causing the problems, joeitalo.

    thanks Sybex,

    yes, i can confirm this.

    i've been running various flavours of 7 for several months with kis 2010 9.0.0.463, with zero problems with wei.

    however, my new install, with kis 9.0.0.736, has made it impossible for me to measure my wei.

    so i tried uninstalling, and guess what, i got a wei result. simply pausing protection or exiting the program was not enough - a full uninstall was needed.

    i hope kaspersky fix this soon, in the meantime i've gone back to kis v463.

    i'll do some research on the kaspersky forums and report back if i learn anything useful.

    wei is pretty useless anyway, and everything else seems to work ok, but it's still a bit bothersome...
    That has made me feel good to know that it's helped out a few others, this took me ages to suss out as I re-installed Window 7 and all the updates along with all other software bit by bit and checking the Index score in between every stage, when I found the problem I then obviously had to un-install kaspersky and so forth.

    Ah, I also have KIS 2010. I will exit it now and try again.

    edit: ah, I guess I have to uninstall KIS. WEI is not that important to me...

    I thoght I had posted what worked for me but I dont see it here..
    This time I installed windows 7 pro 64 bit/ first I removed everything except the keyboard /mouse, including extra hard drives and second monitor, during the install I only allowed important updates to ensure that I install the drivers (motherboard/gpu/sound card/etc.).after uwindows updated (imprtant only for now) I installed My antivirus software (ESET smart security) then ran the windows experience index and it worked like a charm. Even though I was using Kaspersky when I got that error I think I allowed windows to put drivers in prior to me installing thrm and there was a conflict that caused the win experience error..I've been using Kaspersky (2009-2010) with windows 7 since the beta/Rc came out and never had a problem with the experience index

    OK, I see that I am not the only one with failure to calculate the WEI, all seem to be Win7 64bit. Me too. So I guess we will have to wait till next patch Tuesday to see if MS fixes this.
