ct@revotech.ca Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Hi, The new laptop here should run twice as fast as the old one, whether I check the bechmarks on userbenchmark.com or passmark.com, for single thread usage. I also ran a passmark benchmark, and speed measured shows that it's twice as fast. Ram is also twice as fast. I should check the ssd, but I see in performance monitor that cpu is bottlenecking. Still, I tried to copy and paste a heavily loaded HMI page with both computers, and it took about the same time (you understand I was expecting way faster) Yeah, I run visilogics as admin, I disabled UAC, disabled the antivirus... Tha only difference I see between both laptops is Win 7 vs win 10 (Win 10 being on my new laptop). Before migrating to Win 7 (or dual boot, or virtual machine) I wonder what are yours toughts about this. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted May 10, 2019 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 Thanks for the follow-up. I was looking at compatibility mode for a different program and it works by running a virtual machine inside Windows. What you've proven here is that it slows things down considerably, which is good to know. Joe T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
