Enable HPET for 'Time Performance Index'

[coliny]

Yes the problem was sometimes winmgmt was disabled.
This occurs if press power button to shutdown during or after unattended play, next time I boot winmgmt is disabled.

If I use the following sequence to shutdown from unattended play then all is well:-
Alt-S
Alt-T
Alt-X
close XXHE
shutdown.

Now that's sorted I tried disabling HPET but then TPI shows "Not the Best" so for my computer I did need to execute the Command Prompt instruction :-
 
bcdedit /set useplatformclock true

to get TPI - optimal

Hi Colin,

I don't think that using the power button to shut off the OS is any good at any time; usually that is a (form of) hibernate mode, and the times that that worked well (recover from that) have gone since Vista.
But super that you sorted that out !

I think you make it way too difficult for yourself;
It would be correct what you're saying, but it is not correct to do it that way. I know, this is because of your history and the n/a thing, but you should just use the Try Change button when the n/a has disappeared anyway.
Notice that there's so much more in there and that you should let XXHighEnd arrange for it all in a consistent fashion. Just try it ...

Regards and thanks a lot for the feedback,
Peter
