Has anyone been using SiSoft Sandra and Win XP pro?? Whenever I do a CPU benchmark my system locks up. This is with SiSoft Sandra te addition.


Thanks !!!

Any stability problems with other benchmarking programs?

I've personally founf the te edition of Sandra to be total junk. I don't use it for anything more than the CPU and memory benchmark anymore. Nothing else on it even works with any of my systems.

I seem to have no problems.. Try closing everything before you benchmark.. And how long have you let it load.. Just wait a little while.

well i can also confirm these symtoms myself.I just installed winXP pro and yes the te doesnt work for most things even though the websites newest update claims it to be compatible!
alot of "not responding" and also you cant get any cpu/mobo temps either! *damn!*
the update in question is "001"
dont bother actually....................................

well that version is CRAP , get the newest one as it DOES work and has more settings and data for ya than any ohter version

SiSoft Sandra Professional 001

no not 2001, not 2001 te just plain ole 001

gives extra temps, cpu load useage, currect cas, adn what the cas is rated at for that mem- mine says cas 2-133 and cas2.5-148

Just after getting SiSoft Sandra te to run and benchmark in Win XP pro. However Win 98SE is much better at benchies than XP. Gain an extra 150mb ALU on 98SE compared to Win XP.....
