    Hi all,

    I recently installed Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire One A110.

    I wondered what people's experience scores were and what drivers you are using?

    I have got 2.1 currently.

    I have replaced the SSD with a very fast SSD and Memory has been expanded to 1.5Gb.
    I have GMA Booster and this boosted my score from 2.0 to 2.1 in Graphics when clocked at 400.
    What i'm basically looking for are the tweaks and changes that any of you have done on your A150 or A110 (or any other) to get improved performance.
    I know windows experience is hardly the greatest benchmark, but it gives a rough clue of what i can expect.


    These are my current scores: Windows 7, Build 7100. 32-bit.

    Processor: 2.2
    Memory : 4.5
    Graphics: 2.1
    Gaming Graphics: 3.0
    Primary Hard Disk: 5.9

    Cheers :)

    Odd seeing as Performance Information and Tools states "The Windows Experience Index assesses key system componets on a scale of 1.0 to 7.9."

    Mine is 7.9
    - and the original was 2.0

    The XML file is here; "C:\WINDOWS\PERFORMANCE\WinSAT\Datascore\ And then the file named formal.assesment"
    Open it with Wordpad.
    NOT NOTEPAD.
