When I go into Control Panel then to System, The rating is missing (along
with the button to update the rating) and Processor and Memory (RAM) says
"Not available".
This info used to be there. How can I get it back? Thanks for the replies!

Hi microsvc,

See if this is what you see when you open the Windows Experience Index
(WEI). If so, it will show you how to enable the WEI.

I tried what the link said to do (both methods to enable) and it did not
work. Note: Not only is performance not there but theres no info for
Processor or Memory either......

If I go into Control Panel -> Performance Info and Tools, I can get my rating
(3.8), bit when I go back to Control Panel -> System, the rating info is not
there, and the Memory & Processor says Not Available.

Hi microsvc,

I'm not sure what is causing the problem. You can try these to see if
it will get rid of the problem for you though.

1. System Restore with a restore point dated before the problem
started.

2. Repair install.

Since I have no idea what day this happened, doing a restore point would be a
guessing game, one I wont gamble on since vista is so unstable already. The
repair install will take me back to day one, not an option. I've installed
Vista 3x already because of its suicidal nature. If I cant just fix this
single issue itself, I'll live with it.

I'm having the same problem...
I've searched on search engines for the fixes and tried everything I can.
But everything I do does not seem to fix it. This is very annoying..

BTW, I'm using HP tx1000.
