Once upon a time, tucked away in the Settings menus of Windows, there was a secret number that determined your worth—not as a person (thank goodness), but as a PC user. This cryptic figure, the Windows Experience Index, became a badge of honor or a badge of shame, depending on which end of the...

I can't help but believe that Microsoft took WEI (Windows Experience Index) out of Windows to appease to brick & mortar stores like 'BB' that couldn't fool their customers anymore when they tried to sell inferior quality PC's as though they were of better quality. What do you think? 1.) Why...

Hi, When I run WEI, the computer shuts down at the end of the CPU assessment. I worked on this for most of the night last night and have not had any previous problems with this issue. What was I trying to do? Install a Kingston 128GB SSD with a fresh install of Windows 7 x86. System...

Hi! So the issue I'm having is that I recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate (from XP Ultimate) and the computer was working really slowly. First I opened task manager and found only one CPU was being monitored, there was only one window for one CPU, not two windows with only one firing...

Hello, Okay, I have a big problem. I got a laptop from Ebay (Compaq Evo N800c [15" screen]). It came with Windows XP that looked like crap because he had it "rigged" to look like Vista, and I hated it. So I installed Windows 7 after finding out that the laptop can support it. The problem is...

Hello. I just replaced my E5200 dual core (2.5GHz) with a C2Duo E6420 (2.13GHz). My WEI dropped from 6.0 to 5.4 for the CPU, and from 6.0 to 5.3 for the RAM (4GB). I was under the impression that the core 2 duo was superior to the dual core. Am I wrong?

I have an old 2001 desktop that actually is quite a powerhouse (well in its day it certainly was), and Vista works fine with it (the driver issues are now sussed, all thanks to compatibility mode). But there's only one slight problem. The graphics rating in the WEI is 1.9, just 0.1 off from...
