Hi, just downloaded and installed vista sp2,
went in without a hitch but my WEI score has gone
up from 5.3 to 5.7 :)
I have run it a few times and it comes up as 5.7.
Now im not complaining but how has this happened?

Nothing has changed apart from the ram score going up was 5.3 now 5.7,

Running 4 gig ddr2 800 on vista home 32bit.
intel quad Q8300 cpu
Radion HD 4670 1 gig mem graphics

Thanks.

"One of the capabilities of Windows Vista is that it scales itself to fit your computer to help give you the best possible performance. For example, if your computer doesn't have the graphics capability to effectively display the new Windows Aero visual effects, Windows Vista won't enable those effects on your computer."

So by installing Vista it seems you have improved your performance.
