    Hi all,

    I followed Stallen's clean install for Vista business on my T-61. Before the install, the 'Gaming Graphics' score was 4.6, which is what seems to be what everyone gets with the Nvidia 140M. After the install, the score is 3.7. All the other scores remained mostly unchanged. Any thoughts on what the cause is? I know these scores aren't infallible, but such a drop seems to indicate I missed something.

    I installed all the drivers per the guide, and have no unknown hardware in the Device Manager.

    You didn't miss anything. The score is completely fallible and actually calls for this image again:

    Update your drivers and tweak Vista, then completely ignore the WEI score and we'll call it a day.
