Show Us Your WEI

Firestrider said:

I can't seem to get the assessment to complete, I get the error listed below. Anyone know what is causing this?

There seems to be nothing wrong with drivers in dxdiag or device manager. I would attach my dxdiag but it's too big.

ok do the same thing again ( do it at least 3 times).....

right click my computer

click on manage

and then go to the event viewer...

on there should be alerts in there

can you see what errors it gives you

it should say something about winSAT...


(look for the errors in the the column highlited.....)

as you can see i have a hundred errors in my error events.....
all having to do with with application compatibility...

very much so dual - the same RAM in the exact same config on Vista gave me 5.9 hands down every time.

The WEI in 7 is totally weird how can you get the same score for a single HDD against 2 of the same in RAID0??
Or does it just have a look to see what HDD you have and give you a list score
This would mean a single core processor would rate against a multi-core version of the same Processor
I am currently testing my WEI with different amounts of cores running (same Processor) again the results are interesting, especially the RAM scores.

I have just checked my WEI on my Windows7 Virtual box running on Vista x64 and my memory score is higher than running on the real machine

Attachment 2201

Attachment 1806

This is also totally weird from my latest findings RAM scores seem to go down with low CPU scores

Attachment 1806

How many sticks of RAM are installed? is it running Dual?

Pooch

z3r010 said:

6x 2gig DDR3 (running tripple channel) but I only asigned 3.5 gig to the virtual box.

Ok, I should have known

Attachment 1806

I was actually more interested in this

How do you explain the 5.5 ??

Pooch

So the new WEI scores,

Having a weaker processor will affect the other scores this is clear to me but I did not expect these scores

First my proper WEI to set the standard

Note I have only made adjustments to the processor

For johngalt I hope you can use this to find your own answers

Hi Firestrider,

I have seen this once before but I was more interested in a reinstall than fixing it sorry

I presume your WEI has been completed at least once (during the install) so try this; C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore and erase your old results

Pooch

Ps. a new install sorted the problem

Sorry I couldn't resist this line

I cant

Strange that you dont get a 7.? I am starting to think that microsoft has fixed the WEI and that we'll have to wait for the final release to see the proper scores.
