Hi,

I was wondering, is there a programme for measuring WindowsXP
performance/speed?

What I mean by this is that I believe some of the benchmarking
programmes (PCMark04 etc) are designed to test hardware performance
(??) and as such they may just hog the processor for the period of the
test as it does not want to know about how the PC software influences
performance... or am I wrong?

Perhaps a better way to describe what i want to achieve is to describe
it like this.... OK, your PC is running slow and you know it's due to
all the usual junk/spyware so on and so forth.... so you go ahead and
clean out all the rubbish and you notice that there is an improvement
in performance which is great... However what I would like to do is to
quantify that improvement, i.e. performance is boosted by 20%..

does that make sense? or am i talking rubbish too? :-)

Thanks,
CB
