    Hi

    I only get around 2000 Points with PCMark05 under Vista. I know that my notebook (a Pavilion 6868ez) has a weak graphicscard (only a 8400GS), but I thought I should get around 4000-5000 Points after all with my Penryn T9300 processor. Any ideas why my score is so low?

    Are you running on power saver mode? Make sure it's set to high performance. Also, make sure you're not running on battery.

    What are the individual PCMark05 test scores? You can look in one of my reviews such as the Zepto 6024W (link below) for some detailed scores.
