I am trying to calculate my WEI/WinSAT scores on a Windows 8.1 machine (Lenovo ThinkPad W530). Since the WEI graphical user interface has been removed in Windows 8.1 I am using the command line procedure as documented at http://www.cnet.com/how-to/find-your-windows-experience-index-scores-in-windows-8-1/ and other places.

I first run:

winsat prepop

and the system goes to work (when I re-run the command, it returns immediately, not doing the calculations again. how do I force it?) making the calculations. Then I do:

Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_WinSAT

but when I get the results screen similar to the one shown below, all my values are 0 where the scores are shown. What might be happening here?

I don't know "Exactly" what can cause this zero result since it looks like a writing permission on the first run or simply a cache issue.

Anyway I tryed the app ChrisPC Win Experience Index and there the scores appear ok.

Just out of curiosity double checked on the Powershell and Voilá.... there they are now...

Results Before run App

  • CPUScore : 0
  • D3DScore : 0
  • DiskScore : 0
  • GraphicsScore : 0
  • MemoryScore : 0
  • TimeTaken : MostRecentAssessment
  • WinSATAssessmentState : 3
  • WinSPRLevel : 0

Results After run App

  • CPUScore : 6,7
  • D3DScore : 3,7
  • DiskScore : 5,6
  • GraphicsScore : 4,1
  • MemoryScore : 6,7
  • TimeTaken : MostRecentAssessment
  • WinSATAssessmentState : 1
  • WinSPRLevel : 3,7

Notice the change not only on the scores but also on WinSATAssessmentState

WinSAT State Codes

  • 0 = State Unknown
  • 1 = Valid
  • 2 = Incoherent With Hardware
  • 3 = No Assessment Available
  • 4 = Invalid

Let me know if it helps and share along your results.

Here's what works for me, from the command prompt (Win+X, C):

  • winsat formal -restart
  • powershell /c Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_WinSAT
