Intel Computer

Why is my ram and processor subscore rating in windows vista so low?

ram rating 1.8 processor 3.2 i got 3 gb of pc3200 ddr400 dual channel of mem in my computer. my processor is a intel pentium. 3.2 ghz HT 800mhz fsb. The computer does read all of the hardware; it shows the processor and mem info. on the bottom of the computer window: processor: 3.20ghz memory: 3.0gb My roomate's computer rating is pretty high when compared to mine. His computer's processor rating is 3.8 which is a intel pentium 2.8ghz, and memory rating of 4.5 which is only 1 gb. Not sure why my rating is low in comparison to my roomates. here's more info on my computer: motherboard asus p4c800-e deluxe bios is updated. video card: ati 9600 pro all in wonder sound card: creative audigy 2 zs platinum pro w/ s750 speakers power supply of 500w don't mind the old hardware. built the computer 3 yrs ago. thanks.

  1. The windows vista update adviser probably doesn't account for every piece of hardware out there, and is not that accurate to begin with so as long as you have the recommended hardware your computer will run vista well.
