Control Panel shows "Not Available" for system info in Vista

[JohnAn2112]

Hey guys,

Just set up a Q6600, Asus P5K mobo and Vista Home Premium. I got all the drivers installed for the chipset and whatnot, but Vista is showing "Not Available" for the system rating, processor and RAM. CPU-Z shows all the correct info so I know everything is working, and the Device Manager shows all 4 CPU's at 2.4GHz. Is this something that I should worry about or should I just leave it alone?

Vista runs a performance test during installation that determines your score and lists your relevant hardware. Another way of reaching the performance test is through the Control Panel, then the Performance Information and Tools applet. If there is not a way to refresh/update the system/score here, you can manually run it by typing the following from a command prompt:

winsat.exe

(or just "winsat")

Yeah, I did that and it gave me a score of 5.6. It doesn't seem to save it when I go back into the System in Control Panel though. *shrug*

Haven't seen that before. I'm assuming it hasn't affected the ability to use Aero or anything else? Just out of curiosity.

Nah, everything is fine. I was just wondering if it's something I should be overly concerned about.

I have the same problem on my Vista computer. I'm not 100% sure, but I think it happened after I installed Skype (version 3.6.0.216). Can you confirm that you installed Skype? I'm not too concerned and therefore won't uninstall it.
