A vulnerability has been discovered in the ActiveX control used to provide this service: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/bulletins/security_bulletin_1.html. Either visit http://www.canyourunit.com/ to receive an updated version, or remove it using the Add/Remove Programs functionality. An update available through WindowsUpdate will make a registry change and set the kill bit. After the kill bit is set, the control can never be loaded, even when it is fully installed. Setting the kill bit makes sure that even if a vulnerable component is introduced or is re-introduced to a system, it remains inert and harmless.

Thanks for this update. I updated Vista and the rest of my comps last night so I guess it's time to change software.

This is a good test but from my personnal experience you should always try the game with the demo version before chosing... a lot of games can run below the "minimal settings" not so bad or others will barely run on minimal settings... so a good test is better than everything else.

Becuase Steam does not have demos for all of there games. So now I can use this to check my system Thanks a Bunch!

Just tried this on opera and it does not work.!
So... I guess use firefox

even demo versions are usually less taxing then the full versions...Although it is a good start.

You can try testing for Battlefield 2142.

Also a very intense game on your Video Card would be Medal of Honor.

The new one that is!

Yeah, is a nice web site, but the problem is in the fact, sometimes we need more not just for the games runs, the problem is it will the game will run smothly...
