  1. Has anyone been able to get PCMark05 to give a score with the Aero interface on?

     

    The 3D test don't run when the Aero interface is on for me. They run fine with the Windows 7 Basic theme but then the 2D Transparent windows score suffers a lot so while I can get a score with it the Basic theme load it scores poorly.

     

    In the full aero mode the bench fails to run the 3D tests.

     

    I get the same slow 2D transparent windows in Windows Server 2003 which is my other operating system. Hardware is Athlon 6000+ and Radeon 4870 1GB.

     

    As an aside, my old GeForce 8800 GTS 640 does not have the slow 2D transparent windows test problem that the Radeon has and indeed I have not been able to better my 8800 GTS 640 PCMark05 score with the 4870. It's 8101 vs 7895 so far.

     

    Anyone had similar issues or found a way to get it work properly?

     

    Cheers

  2. With the screen shot required rule and the Validation for "top 20" scores, which top 20 scores is it referring to? Is in the top 20 in any hardware class or just the top 20 global scores?

     

    Cheers

     

    FWIW I prefer to have a screenshot and a validation for all my scores - some of early ones don't have screenies but I prefer to have the screen shot as well :)

  3. I'm trying to submit a new SuperPi result and I get the foolowing error, any ideas:

     

     

    Crap. An error happened.

     

    We could blame this on you but it's most likely our crappy coding skills. You could try again or nudge our developpers for fixing this.

  4. Just wondering if there is an easy way to compare users in a similar fashion to the compare processors and videocards feature except it would only return results for hardware common to both users but also still have the option to compare your other available hardware. I hope I make sense.

     

    Keep up the great work!

  5. I've noticed that sometimes it detects the number of cores correctly and sometimes it doesn't. It must be down to the operating system; in WinXP x64 it works right and detects both cores of my X2 Brisbane, in WinXP x86, Win7 x64 it doesn't find both cores and I just set it manually. The quickest way I find is to press "~" to get the console and type "ft 2" to set wPrime to two threads. "st 6" runs the 32M test, "st 11" runs the 1024M test and "gui" gets back to the normal interface.

     

    Cheers

  6. I voted none of the above. I think that hwbot should be the central repository for all benchmark scores and as such if somebody wants recognition they should post their score. Why would someone not post a score because that score is then ranked? Makes no sense to me.

     

    I say leave it as it is and if a killer score is not on hwbot, then it shouldn't be recognised until it is on the bot.

     

    my 2¢

     

    Cheers

  8. everything is running fine :D

    global rank is only awarded once per benchmark per user; so if you have better scores in that benchmarks you can only get hardware points.

     

    so if you get global points with a system and then get a better score with that same system the global point don't get recalculated for the newer better score?

     

    Cheers

  9. for the checksum verification, is it required for all results (post rule implementation) or just for top 20?

     

    and what does top 20 mean, is it for top HOF global or top 20 HOF hardware or both?

     

    I have seen some recently submitted results that don't have the checksum verification, should these be blocked? (yes the newer results did lower my ranking LOL)

     

    Do all the rules have to be adhered to or can you just use a valid sceenshot and skip the online submission?:

     

    eg wPrime 1024M rules:

     

    * You must use the wPrime v1.55 version

    * choose 1024M calculation

    * have a valid screenshot (see example below): clearly show wPrime time, processor in CPU-Z, unless you submitted using the online submission function of wPrime

    * use the online submission function of wPrime, with a valid checksum, for top 20 scores

     

    Cheers
