    mine's windows folder alone is 9.34 GB pa right now

    currently having issues with power management. I'm having bad latency and few stutter if I enable Eist in the bios or if the processor power management minimum powerstate is set anything below 81%.

    Mine seems to check out fine........


    Are you using any drivers from Windows 7 vs 3rd-party drivers? The drivers for most of my hardware are 3rd-party except for the All In One printer. But, that is turned off at the moment.

    Plus, devices I don't use such as floppy, parallel and serial ports, and integrated video are turned off in the bios.

    One of the issues I had with Windows 7 RC was Explorer constantly crashing whenever I browse a folder with an mpeg file in it.

    It looks like that issue was fixed in the retail version.

    yes, Isolate ko na halos lahat, Video card, used another ram, disabled LAN, Sound, usb host, even mouse. removed firewall, anti-vir, etc... kaka format ko lang din may problema agad kahit ang linis pa...

    ang hindi ko lang na check is yung main hardrive that is used by the OS.

    still downloading the retail, hope ma solve siya...

    I really haven't had too many latency problems in the past. The problems I've had were my wireless router, usb, and audio devices.

    Just a hunch. One thing I'd check out is the System Information in Accessories. I'd look for hardware devices that share an IRQ.

    I noticed my Gigabyte motherboard (or Windows 7) have many devices sharing an IRQ. The IRQ problem should've been licked a long time ago and every device should have their own IRQ. My previous pc (AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+/MSI K8N Neo 4 Platinum motherboard) with Vista and Win 7 RC had different IRQ's for each hardware device. There were no shared IRQ's. That pc functioned perfectly until I replaced the X800XL video card with an 8600GT (1 BSOD) and later on when the bulged/leaky capacitors killed the motherboard.

    So far, I have no problems yet with this new pc. But, I don't like shared IRQ's such as my Firewire and SATA plus audio and usb sharing the same IRQ. The potential is there for latency problems and perhaps even a crash if the devices sharing those IRQ's were used at the same time.

    I'm also not done yet optimizing this pc. I'm going to test out many of those devices that share an IRQ. I have Firewire devices such as my camcorder and external hard drive. My usb devices are varied ranging from input devices, hard drives, printers, and the PSP.

    My video card and PCI also share an IRQ. But, I'm lucky that HD 5770 is so big it makes the two pci slots unusable.

    If I had room to add my pci Audigy 2 Value, that probably would compound any potential hardware conflict with the video card.

    what does it take to get highest scores in windows 7?



    my score:



    personaly, I don't think the windows 7 is accurate.

    just running to intel e5200 2.5ghz oc to 3.6ghz * stock volts 2mb-L2
    with xfx 9600gt + xtreem 4gb-1066-cl6 ram + seagate sata 2mb hardisk

    4ghz oc is very achievable with the cheapo gigabyte-g31-esc. sikat kasi yung e5200+gigabyte-G31 sa tipidpc. but takot ako sa tinkering of cpu voltage. lol

    Trying to nail down latency problems is a pain in the butt. But, if the problem only occurs at 5% cpu, I normally wouldn't worry about it especially if there's no indication it's affecting real world performance.

    nice score. I'll have to settle my hampas lupa rig for now. still spending money for my other hampas lupa rigs too... lol

    my latency issue is still there with the retail version... oh well, atleast the Eist/C1E is still in effect though. kaya ok na lang....
