Is there any condition we have to meet first to run pwrtest?
I install Vista and try to measure the S3 resume performance by pwrtest. But when I executed pwrtest, it fail and show following message. "ERROR: StartTrace failed -- : Access is denied." Does anyone know what is the matter? Shall I enable anything first? Thanks for your help. Paloma Chou |

Perhaps try running it as an administrator (Right-click, run as Administrator)?
Sounds like the UAC is blocking whatever hardware registers you're trying to access or sees the test as harmful. -dl -- David Longnecker Web Developer http://blog.tiredstudent.com Is there any condition we have to meet first to run pwrtest?
