People said that test can be right, they said im cheating or im a lier.....
Any admin to tell me if can be a problem of performance test to getiing high scores???

Of course it is very easy to just use PhotoShop to edit a screen shot. So we really can't comment without seeing the baseline file or at a minimum the full set of results.

It Is also depends on what you define as a cheat. For example, if you have created a RAM disk that looks like a CD drive (one of the more common 'cheats'), then you can get some big scores. It is only really a cheat if you don't tell people you are testing a RAM drive and not a CD Drive.

You can export the results (from the file menu). This would have saved you a lot of typing and avoided a lot of typing mistakes.

The CD score looks too high. So it would be intersting to know what hardware and media was used for the test.

ok here is the SAVE file....

It's a bug, Notice your "CD Mark" it's ridiculously high, impossible high.
So the majority of your Total Score is just from your CD Read.

[David (PassMark)]

There is no reason to think it is a bug. There is a lot of software around that can create RAM drives or similar. Maybe he is really testing a USB memory stick, for example. Which is not ridiculous or impossible, just misleading if they are claiming it is a CD-ROM, when it clearly isn't.

I agree however the 'CD' result pulls up the entire result becuase it is so high.

This score is not manipulated. What should be the point?

Better to just have the system run at optimal speed with no hassles.

It is not a bug - just some of us like to use virtual CD instead of the very slow mechanical one. Kind of boosts the speed somewhat.

Cheating

It is cheating because it does not give an accurate result of the Hardware a CD test is suppose to test the CD DRIVE not the RAM BASED VIRTUAL CD DRIVE THUS YOU ARE A CHEATER!

I dont use in the test virutal drive, i made that experiençe, and the result goes to 1000 , im using a right dvd write to make the test.....

[merlin]

OK

Well that result on PT 6.0 For an Athlon XP is just plain WRONG. it is just like a baseball player using steroids to enhance his performance to break records it is not real and should not be used. and what is a "right dvd write"

[Peandreo]

you dont know what is DVD WRITER ???

[merlin]

Right DVD

im using a right dvd write to make the test.....

Just sounded funny like you where using a program.
