So I'm using a I530 and my BaseScore is 3.2

My BaseScore is about 1.6 points away from where I need it to be to run the software for a 03-03-09 released game

My question is...Is there a way to improve my BaseScore to the 4.8...(Keeping in mind that both Graphics is 3.7 and my Gaming Graphics is the 3.2)

Without spending half a month's salary? I meet all the other necassary requirements

The score you get in Vista is related to the lowest scored device.  If your video is the issue, you will have to install a Video card, and possibly whatever else to get the score you want.  A decent PCIe X16 video card can be purchased under $100 that will probably increase the score. 

I have an XFX8600GT (NVIDA) video card and it's score is 5.6 for gaming.  The 8600GT is one option.

Cool thanks alot...one more thing Will the XFX86006T also increase Windows Aero score as well,since both Graphics and Gaming Graphics are well Graphics?
