Ok I have no clue why this is doing this but i go to run the rating system in
the performance section of the control panel and i get this error message
"windows was unable to calculate the windows expierience index because the
user cancelled the assessment" And no i didnt cancell the thing. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
 
1. Click Start, type the following path in the Start Search box,
and then press ENTER:

%SYSTEMROOT%\Performance\WinSat\DataScore

2. Delete all the .xml files in the folder.

3. Click Start, type performance information and tools in the Start Search box,
and then click Performance Information and Tools in the Programs list.

4.If the following information appears, click Refresh Now to update the
Windows Experience Index:

I cant even find the folder because it wont let me. This is what comes up
"Windows cannot find 'C:\Windows\Performance\WinSat\DataScore'. Make sure you
typed the name correctly, and then try again." This is very annoying because
all i want to do is rate my system. I think the rest of the last post will
work fine, but first i have to find the folder in which all of the xml files
are contained. Thanks again guys.
 
Ok it gives me the same answer even though I changed the Score to Store. This
is what is give me. "Windows cannot find
'C:\Windows\Performance\WinSat\DataStore'. Make sure you
typed the name correctly, and then try again."
