+-   Microsoft Quietly Previews PC Advisor Repair Tool on Sunday October 12 2008, @03:42PM notthatwillsmith

notthatwillsmith writes "On Friday, Microsoft invited members of the Windows Feedback Program to try out a preview of a new application, the Microsoft PC Advisor. The new tool promises to "continuously monitor your PC for problems and give you the solutions to fix them, in real time". After testing on several Vista machines with a variety of problems, Maximum PC has written a full report on the Microsoft PC Advisor. The short version? Like every other "PC Repair" tool they've tested, the new app's signal to noise ratio is quite bad, and it misses the obvious and important problems, like out-of-date videocard drivers."
