x64 PC and When I Went to Update My Windows Experience Rating it Says its Not
Available and Does Not Give the Option to Refresh My Rating. Does Anyone Know
What May Have Caused This? Its Nothing Really Important I Guess But it Been
Bugging Me =)

Have you tried restarting your system and trying again?

Yup I've Restarted My PC Several Times and No Luck.  It Will Allow Me to
Click on My Windows Experience Index But Only Shows Me the Last Index Update
as of 3/21/08 and Nothing More. I Think I'm Probably Just Going to Have Back
Everything Up and Install a The OS Again to Fix It

Messiah,
Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933478 ("The Windows Experience Index
rating may inherit an incorrect value after you make a change to your
computer's hardware") and use method number 3 which I quote:

Method 3: Update the Windows Experience Index at a command prompt

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, type Command Prompt in the Start Search box, and then press
ENTER.  
2. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:

(unquote)

If that fails, use method number 4 in the same page.

Best of luck.

Carlos
