What is the Windows experience index?

Read the article above about it.

Your score of 3:

A computer with a base score of 3 is able to run Windows Aero and many new features Windows Vista at a basic level. Some of the newWindows that Vista advanced features would not have all of their functionality available. For example, a machine with a base score of 3 can display the Windows Vista theme at a resolution of 1280 × 1024, but might struggle to run the theme on multiple monitors. Or, it can play digital TV content but might be difficult to read the content of the TV high definition (HDTV).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It all depends on what hardware you have installed, on the coast.

And make sure you have latest hardware drivers Vista installed on the site to manufacture ' e, not through Windows updates:

  • THE CALICO CAT WINDOWS DESKTOP BACKROUND WILL BE WORK ON A VISTA ULTIMATE 32-BIT WINDOWS AND ANY SERVICE PACKS DELL INSPIRON 531?

    I have a Dell Inspiron 531 in the House. It's Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit without service pack. Can I download wallpaper cat Calico of Windows (r) and set it as background?

    Sincerely,.

    Numbuh3wearsabutterflycoutume

    PS I went on the site of Microsoft Windows to download, but I cancelled.

    Although the calico at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/personalize/wallpaper-desktop-background cat is technically for Windows7, I don't see that this will not work on your system (since it is, after all, just an image).  Go ahead and try it.  I don't think that you will have problems with the issue of the service pack with just a background image.  If it does not or you cannot configure it to your liking, then maybe it does not match with the theme you are using (but which is not likely or must have its size adjusted before putting the context).  But I suspect that it will work fine.

    I hope this helps (and BTW, I LOVE the photo since I am a person cat myself).

    Good luck!

  • A Dell Inspiron 531 computer will be compatible with Windows 7? Conflicting information between sources.

    I looked on these contradictory information, and here's what I found... I'm still not sure about that.
    I found information about this Dell Inspiron 531 computergoing to be compatible with Windows 7 on the site of Microsoft and in the control panel of that computer system information.
     
    But then I found more information on the Dell website that indicates otherwise.
     
    Please follow me closely here, it took some time to compile this info.
     
    Allows first eliminate what would be the simplest solution I already tried, that would be the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" located at this address: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/UpgradeAdvisor
     
    On this Web page, there is a small program to download and install that is supposed to tell me if this computer is compatible with Windows 7 in processor speed, RAM, graphics card, etc. and devices, automatically... Unfortunately, it does not work... I installed it and it stopped with the message: "Windows 7 advisor stopped working" so that program and this option is unnecessary.
     
     
    It is the "Windows 7 system requirements" list of information... it shows that I need at least a 1 GHZ processor or faster, 32-bit... This Inspiron 531 has a 2 GHZ processor and is 32-bit. This page is says I need 1 GB of RAM... it has 1 GB of RAM. It says I need 16 GB of available disk space, it has a C 138 GB primary hard drive which will be deleted when Windows 7 is ready to be installed. And he said that I need a"Graphics card DirectX 9 (with WDDM1.0 or higher driver)" ... the last part in parentheses is the only part that I'm not sure, but my system via the control panel information shows most of this information as being adequate.
     
    Go to this URL: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/inspd531/en/OM/appendix.htm#wp1149549 to see the Dell Inspiron 531 annex page online and click on the link above titled, 'Specifications' or just scroll to see... there in the category 4th down titled 'Video', it shows the "video integrated Nvidia (DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.9 Graphics Processing Unit) '. This seems to correspond to the above listed"DirectX 9" info page "Windows 7 system requirements".
       
    But then there are 2 pages Web of Dell, which indicate that this Dell Inspiron 531 is only supported by Windows Vista and Windows XP... see this URL for this Web page... http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/osmatrix/index?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs& ~ ck = mn  
     
     
    It shows, once you scroll down just a bit, a list of the current Dell computers that can support Windows 7... the Inspiron 531 is not on this list.
    This list excludes the Inspiron 531, but it then says' does not have a computer on these lists? Click here to shop for a new Dell! » .. .bad grammar side, this line that I'm pointing out may just be trying to sell me a new Dell computer, if I actually need or not Dell
    !
     
    And finally my info the computer from the control panel shows aprocessor 2 GHZ, 1 GB of RAM or 958 MB anyway and the 32 bit OS.
     
    And Yes, I ran the built-in diagnostic test Dell PSA on this computer and when it tests the sound card and the speakers, he plays the song a bit in each channel and then on both channels, so I know that the material is good on this computer.
    I know it's a lot to go through... it took me a while to compile this info, and I sent a version of this letter with screenshots and other MS Tech in India who I worked with for a month on the phone and email to correct a problem of 'no sound' that simply cannot be beat.
    But I'm trying to make sure before I do a clean install of Windows 7, when the disc arrives here, I don't clean it hard drive alone to experience Windows 7 does not work on this machine.
    Actually, I'm a Mac user and I don't have much trouble in those... Just trying to fix the computer of my mother for it, and now it seems that trying to install Windows 7 is the only way to get the sound back so that my mom can enjoy some music again.
    I never thought that I would like to know as well on the PC troubleshooting I've learned in the last month, but I don't like, and there is still no sound on this computer and everything has been tried... I made a collage of a hundred different error messages from Windows that I think I'll put it up for bid on ebay... I just want to go home to my trusty Macs.
     
    Please give me your comments... I would of course welcome.
    Thank you
    NuMetro

    I am happy that you have it installed, but you have sound?

    I was too surprised when Windows 7 to install all my drivers in device for me!

    The video driver that it wanted to install was even later that of Nvidia. Also, it does not have the driver Physx I needed, so I had to install one myself. The other driver, that he has not installed was the pilot for the X - Fi card. He did install my motherboard if chipset drivers, but I turned around and installed ones that came with my motherboard.

    Windows 7 does a better job to settle on earlier versions of Windows, but do not watch install what he wants to make sure that it does not have something that you don't want. He came along and updated my video driver again, but when that happens, it installs just the driver itself and not the driver Physx and my video control panel. Now when he talks about video drivers, I just go to Nvidia and download the full set.

    You have the option in there for Windows Update to select which updates you want to allow. I would have put to allow you to decide which ones you want and do not let do it on his own.

    I'm glad you're a happy camper! I do not see where you come with Vista, I jumped on this operating system completely because of the horror stories I've heard.

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but your Dell Inspiron 531 s is NOT able to be upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista and with Windows 7 installed and working properly.

    As you can read on this link of Dell, Dell did NOT write Windows 7 drivers for your model computer.

    Under 'refine your results' > 'Operating System' > click the operating system dropdown > NO Windows 7 drivers available

    Is it possible to install and operate windows edition to 7 Home premium with only 960 MB of ram on a Dell Inspiron 531 s?

    Aries is perhaps not the biggest problem.  WIn7 needs 256 MB of ram to run aero. You can run it in basic, but with 960 ram it will be slow.  If you use it just for browsing and e-mail, it might be tolerable.

  • Upgrade a Dell Inspiron 531 to something with more memory and faster?

    Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 531, 32-bit operating system, and the 3G memory in it but is Vista. I tried to upgrade to Windows 7, but after many attempts, could not go without having to clear everything and start over. So I'd do it if I have to do I was wondering if I could make the machine that is more memory better and faster, without having to buy a new computer say a Dell XPS 8300 (that I'll have to run a lot of photographic software in the future and I understand that this could be a good computer for that?) In any case, it is possible to 'upgrade' the computer something like this please, or I have to save my pennies for a new? Thank in advance for your advice.)

    Hello

    If you upgraded to 4GBs off RAM you won't get many benefits

    Here is an article on what is happening with 4GBs of RAM:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929605

    "If a computer has many features implemented, the available memory can be reduced to 3 GB or less." However, the maximum memory available in 32-bit versions of Windows Vista is typically 3.12 GB. »

    and you should also consult the Dell manual for your model desktop computer see what amount of RAM your motherboard would answer anyway

    http://support.Dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/my_systems_info/manuals?c=us&l=en&s=Gen& ~ CK = anavml

    and here is the reason why you can not upgrade to Windows 7

    Yes, I thought. This notebook is an old, I had and was giving up for sale. He had previously installed games, but I never used them. In any case thanks for the reply.

    BTW, I have a new desktop PC and laptop, so you don't have to worry about a new system. Just had a question about the used laptop previously, anyway thanks.

    Hope everyone is a great day

  • I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off.

    I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off when the charger is plugged after about 10 to 15 minutes. If I shine a torch on the screen, I see about the display is always. If I select change user from the menu start or stop / restart the machine, the backlight turns on and will last for another 10 to 15 minutes. I tried in safe mode and the same thing happens. Can someone help me with this problem?

    It could be the inverter Board or the backlight itself on the way to the outside. Whatever it is, it is definitely a hardware problem and it will take a good repairman to fix. You can contact Dell and see what they would charge to fix this, just to see if it would be more cost-effective to buy a new laptop or have it repaired. Because it is 5 years since it is manufacturing, you can be better to save your pennies for a new :-(
