PC Won't "view System Info" in 3d Vantage

[Antx777]

Hello,

was going to give vantage an "extreme" run tonight, but it wont run, and when and click on 3 d mark, a prompt says: SYSTEM INFO SCAN FAILED: CANT RUN BENCHMARK

It is "similar" in 3d mark 2011 - which won't run the cpu/Pysx test etc (screen goes blank)

Winutilities, and windows info (in accessories) run fine, so it seems "3d mark related".


EDIT,

from future mark it says:

"This error will occur if the System Info was not able to run when the 3DMark was started. When you see a prompt “A Program Needs Your Permission to Continue – Futuremark SystemInfo”, please allow this application to run.

Any one know of this problem?

yes, just found that in link.

But when it says:

"""""When you see a prompt “A Program Needs Your Permission to Continue – Futuremark SystemInfo"""""


Well, i don't get a prompt - well not when starting vantage up

Sorted this now by downloading the hot fix for 3dmark 2011

First time i've been ble to run a 2011 test. I'm sure vantage will be fine too now, as it states on the fururemark site that it fixes all other "3dmarks" too

thanks
