Memory (RAM) 2.00 GB => 5.5
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO => 3.5
Gaming graphics 1023 MB Total available graphics memory => 3.8
Primary hard disk 33GB Free (60GB Total) => 5.8

Here's mine - in Dutch. (Wish I could change that - is there a way to have Vista running in English or would I have to reinstall the lot?)

I wonder why my RAM scores so low - I have 3GB of it btw.

@Sahrah, because you need 4GB to high 5.9 on RAM ;). Haha.

Mines 5.3 too =).
I like my AMD Athlon 64 X2, I don't like going with the crowd and buying Intels =s .

Just realised, I have exactly same scores as Xenomex, DELL Inspiron 531?

It's not the amount of ram, but the speed of it

Wouldn't a English language pack make it readable in English?

@Deney,
you're right, i have a dell inspiron 531.
Suprisingly i seem to have an outstanding score :)
And by the way...
@SarahJames,
RAM isn't always the amount, or the quantity, it's more about the brand, or the type, thats why many different brands sell different types of RAM, you could get some with a water cooling system fitted on top of them lol, and they will score a big score!

@Jack,
I don't think there is a score for XP.
But you could always name the specs!
