I would give you a screenshot if I were at home, but I'm not right now.

Funny thing...

I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+

768Mb RAM

(2) 20 Gb HDD

On-board VIA Video and 6-channel Sound

And my rating is a 1.0!

I guess it must not like my On-Board video even though I don't experience any speed issues whatsoever.

My system is much zippier than when it's running XP Pro, so I don't think it should be so harsh in its rating.

Oh well, I don't rely on a rating to know how my system is running...

3.6 on a Dell Latitude D810. :)

RTM works very smoothly on it too.

Hey, how'd you get RTM if it hasn't been released yet??

RTM is finally out, but the Build most people are using isn't RTM. Everyone thinks it is, but it's a custom compiled Beta-RTM mix made specially to hit the pirates back for at least once.

done.. just a typical core 2 duo build done intelligently running at 3.2 GHZ with more hard drives then I really need. 7900 gt card, nothing too special or expensive there... also not overclocked as I just installed vista.. 2 gigs of g.skill ram back when it was 239.99 instead of the 309.99 it is now... raptor hard drive which in retrospect was a waste of money and not worth the modest speed increase and rather significant increase in noise levels... I don't plan on upgrading this system other then perhaps the video card for 3 years plus.

The leaked build is not the same code as what will ship on November 30th. That's what he's "on about."

No... Microsoft was just trying to spread FUD to get gullible people (ahem) not to download Vista. Of course there are fake builds (there always are), but the one most people are downloading (straight from "the man" himself) is real.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
    • CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
