Windows Experience rating:


System info (the amount of RAM it shows for my system is incorrect, it is actually 1 GB):


That beats out my laptop... I get a 2.7 for the Windows Experience Index.



About the RAM amount. You mentioned it has onboard graphics...that's most likely the reason why it doesn't list a full 1 GB RAM.

Wow, seeing as yours is a 64-bit and mine's a 32-bit, I would've expected the opposite. :o It's not that much of a difference, though. B)

Yes, so you're not actually getting the full amount of RAM. Now usually in the BIOS, you can set the amount of shared video memory. So if you're not planing on doing a lot of hardcore graphics applications like games, you can change it and utilize more of your memory :)

It's a Vista-only feature. So if you're running any other OS, you're out-of-luck.

If you do have Vista, it's Control Panel (or right click "Computer" > Properties) > System > click "Windows Experience Index"
