I scored a 604 to 608, trying 3 differant video drivers. Kinda baffled myself.

Sure doesn't sound right with your set up. Are you on DirextX 9.0C. It works with the "C" version. I guess any earlier versions you may get poor results.

you have an FX 5700 video card. those are extremely slow...so don't expect your score to be any higher :freak:

Not what I wanted to hear, I still cant believe a 256MB, 8X, Vid card would rate only 1.3 FPS. Still checking DirectX and gonna look up some FX5700 Benches and reviews. Thanks for input

Doesn't look like the 4.1 cats helped at all.

ANd yes I did remember to set my drivers for optimal performance..

ANd I guess that BIOS upgrade didn't help any iether, other than windows detects my processor like it is supposed to. xP
