    What are you talking about? Where did this "score" come from? Have you posted this question in the Gaming forum??

    I believe haze99 is refering to the Windows Experience Index.  It is defficult to increase it on a laptop. The index is a function of memory, process and video card, change anyone to modify your score.

    For a laptop such as the 1545 that is a good score and probably all you will ever get out of it.  Those scores are "relative" and many do not really rely on them as a gauge of how well it's performing.   On a desktop components can be changed/added and the score increased but you don't have that option with a laptop.

    One other issue, the 1545 is not a "gaming" laptop.  If you wanted a "gaming" laptop you purchased the wrong model.

    I have an Inspiron N7110 with a score of 4.9 for Graphics, 5.9 for Primary Hard Disk, 6.6 for Gaming Graphics, 7.4 for Processor, 7.7 for Memory. How can I get more? I run a lot of games slowly and want to improve this. The link for "View ways to increase your score" takes me to a page with nothing I need on it. Need information? I can provide it.

    Graphics and Gaming Graphics are pretty much impossible to upgrade on a laptop. Its the main bottle neck on the system.

    Memory and processor are already strong above 7.

    5.9 for primary hard disk can be changed to about 7 if you upgrade your hard drive to a SSD such as a Samsung 840 Evo or Crucial M500 and may help the games run a lot more smoothly. The SSD has significant improvements in terms of performance but is more expensive per GB so you would need to determine how much storage you are using to run the many games and whether its too expensive or not to get a SSD that has this much storage either that only install a few games at a time.
