Default Windows Vista Rating of 1.0????

I just built a brand new system with the Corei7 920 and 1x GeForce 260 GTX OC w/ 6G of DDR3 RAM system runs great but my windows vista rating is 1.0 for some odd reason. Everythings a 5.9 except the video and graphics but i have the most up to date drivers there are atm so not sure why this is. Any help?

Do the test again, if you have updated drivers since the last test it will show as 1.0

Re-open that window. Form time to time, that window takes a little longer to refresh.

To be honest you seem to be caring about the Index Score too much.. because it really doesn't mean crap...

But the best method is to re run the test

It gives your GTX 260 a 5.7? That still isn't right. My HD 4830 gets a 5.9 and it is way below a GTX 260.

Might be some differences in certain hardware but i have the same set up just about and get a 5.9 so.
exactly why i would care how nice my Vista experience is is kinda funny.
Its like saying the Taxi has an experience of 5.9 getting me to the party.
