CPU-z on Vista

[mattpj]

Hey guys,

I have tried to run CPU-Z on Vista Home Premium and it gives me an error message saying there is a driver error and then wont tell me any Mainboard information.

On XP before it was absolutely fine of course. Anything I need to do?

Is it 32bit or 64bit Version of Vista youve got?

 

[mattpj]

I have 64bit... I am guessing this would be the problem?

Are you running it as an admin? IT works fine for me al song as I tell it to run as administrator and click through the UAC popup.

I will try this thanks for the tip

 

[mattpj]

That didn't work unfortunately. You on Vista 64?

I tried getting CPU-z working in Vista aswell (64 bits), but it never worked - and along other programs that didnt work either I went back to XP within days.. I will try again in 6 months time to see if support has improved.

I've decided to have a dual boot, like to play with new OS.
All the benchmarks I have seen give XP the edge on all games / apps.

ah, if only i had thought of that.. but I can't be bothered to do this now after actually getting vista to work
