PCMark 7 is a benchmark offering complete PC performance testing. Complete PC performance testing with one-click. Multiple PC tests tailored to specific performance needs. A wide range of PC tests based on real world applications. Created with input from leading technology companies

PCMark 7 includes a range of tests that give different views of your system's performance. In the Advanced Edition you can choose which tests to run. The common use and hardware component tests are unavailable in the Basic Edition.

PCMark 7 scores should be compared only to other PCMark 7 scores. Each version of PCMark is designed to take account of the latest developments in memory, storage, processor and graphics and this means scores cannot be compared usefully across versions.

PCMark 7 uses Windows 7-specific features during tests that are not present in Windows Vista.
1. Video playback test in PCMark 7 uses Microsoft Media Foundation for playback. Vista does include Media Foundation but critically there is no H.264 Media Foundation codec available on Vista. It may be possible to install a third party H.264 MF codec and get the test to run but this is officially unsupported. Note that PCMark 7 does not use older DirectShow - installing a H.264 DirectShow codec would not help.
2. Video transcoding test in PCMark 7 uses Media Foundation Fast Transcoding feature that was introduced in Windows 7. This feature is not available on Windows Vista.
