Pro features
Three versions
PCMark2002 ships in three versions: downloadable Free version, small fee Registered version, and the fully featured Pro version. As the names indicate, the Free version is downloadable from gamershq.madonion.com/download/ for free, the Registered and the Pro versions can be obtained by registering PCMark2002 and paying the license fee.
Please, read the license agreement for details about the distribution and usage rights of all these versions of PCMark2002.
The Registered version of PCMark2002 unlocks some of the functionality restricted in the Free version. The following features are made available:
- Custom selection of tests. You can choose which tests to run and which to skip. Whole test groups can be selected, for example to get a CPU score, but skipping the Memory and HDD tests. You can also choose individual CPU tests, and skip some of them.
- Testing options. You can choose to repeat each test in the benchmark run a certain number of times, which will give you the average of the individual test runs as result. Additionally, you can choose to loop all tests infinitely. There is also an option to choose which logical hard drive to use in the HDD test, or you can choose to test all HDDs.
- Result details. You can watch the results of each individual test immediately after the test run.
- Result export in text format. A result file can be saved in tabbed text format. This means that those results can easily be imported to almost any text editor or spread sheet application, like Microsoft Word or Excel.
The Pro version of PCMark2002 offers full functionality. In addition to those functions unlocked in the Registered version, the following features are made available:
- ResultBrowser2002 - A professional tool for analysing and comparing test results.
- Windows XP 2D tests. These tests display and measure the performance of some of the new GUI (Graphical User Interface) features in Windows XP.
- Video encoding test. This test performs video compression from a video clip of MPEG1 format to ASF (Advanced Streaming Format). Two video clips are generated; one low resolution and one high resolution.
- Video playback tests. Both ASF and DVD playback performance is tested. Also, there are low and high resolution/bit rate clips of both ASF and DVD.
- Video quality tests. DVD playback quality is measured in a series of quality tests.
