    How about you run some tests with it installed, then uninstall it, run the same exact tests.That's the only way to get an accurate test.

    Sorry for you having to be the Beta Tester though. LOL

    I installed it a couple of days ago and do not see that much of a difference at all? I am arguing with you at all, I mean I don't see a difference on good or bad?

    These results are on an older, 5400rpm drive in my laptop. My W.E.I. disk score is 5.2. The same as SP1.

    Could you post some SP1 results too? If they are, indeed the same, you have an *.inf that works with this build. The rest of us, including a few websites benching it....don't :(.

    I can't post them while SP2 is installed, but I do know that my access time and average transfer rate were pretty much identical with SP1.
