Hello I did the test and I only scored 343.0
CPU Pentium 4 - 2.64Ghz clockspeed
Memory 512 MB RAM
Videocard Geforce MX440 with AGP8x
CD Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1202
Harddisk ST380011A (It's a seagate with 80 GB)
I'll upgrade my memory to 1280 MB and the CD wil be replaced by a new one. My graphic card should change 2 i think but thatl'l be for later.
What do u think of the result ? The computer is fully original ... Tips are always welcome
Sorry for crappy english 8)

THe PC is obviously a few years old and this is about what is to be expected.
If you play a lot of games. Upgrade the video card and RAM.
Otherwise I would save my money, wait a year or so and then buy a whole new PC. (Quad Core CPU, 64bit Vista, 500GB HD, this time next year)

Without knowing what the use your computer for and how much spare cash you have, it is hard to comment.
If it was my PC. I would wait. A new CPU would probably mean a new motherboard. A new motherboard would probalby force you to get a new PCI-E graphics card and maybe new RAM. And the new MB would have SATA HD interfaces, so you might want a new hard drive as well. And your existing power supply and case might not suit your new MB. So you might also need a new case and power supply. But hang on, you have just replaced the entire PC...... one part at a time.
