Lesson 8 Software Tools: WinBench, WinZip, Ghost Testing program for PCs performance: WinBench WinBench is a subsystem-level benchmark that measures the performance of a PCs graphics, disk, processor, video, and CD-ROM subsystems in a Windows-based environment. WinBenchs tests are all 32-bit, and so can only run on Windows 9 Windows 98 and Windows NT systems. WinBench returns the following main results that provide an overview of a PCs graphics, disk, processor, and CD-ROM subsystems performance: . Business Graphics WinMark and Business Disk WinMark . High-End Graphics WinMark and High-End Disk WinMark . CPUmarkl6 . CPUmark32 . CD-ROM WinMark WinBench The requirements for running the High-End tests are different than those for the Business tests. For more information, look up the reading materials for WinBench: Minimum requirements WinBench 99s enhancement. The Business tests measure your PCs disk and graphics subsystem performance as they perform work on popular, everyday business applications such as Paradox or PowerPoint. WinBench The High-End tests measure your PCs disk, graphics, and processor performance as they apply to demanding work styles and specialized applications, such as image editing, 3D visualization, and application development. WinBench stores some of its essential information in the Windows registry, as well as in. INI files. Needless to say, using REGEDIT on any of this information could damage WinBenchs ability to safely run its tests. Compression software: WinZip Have you ever used the Internet? If so, youve probably encountered ZIP files. Are you a Windows user? If so, WinZip is the way to handle these archived files. What is a ZIP file, anyhow? ZIP files are archives used for distributing and storing files. ZIP files contain one or more files. Usually the files archived in a ZIP are compressed to save space. ZIP files make it easy to group files and make transporting and copying these files faster. ZIP files save ti
