Hi,
 
I own a XFX Geforce 4 MX 440 (64 MB DDR).
 
When I try to start 3DMark2003, I get the message "you can only run one of four tests blabla" ... so far, so good, it's only a DX7 card, therefore the message is ok.
 
After some seconds I get another message: "System Info Error: System Error" and 3DMark2003 quits ... what the #!=? ... what does that mean?
 
I have installed DX9a and the latest 45.51 Detonators. I am running WinXP SP 1 ...
 
Before, I had a good old GeForce 1 DDR (!) and the first test worked in 3DMark2003 - now, with a newer card, it doesn't work.
 
And ideas / suggestions?

Uninstall Video Card from device manager (don't reboot!) and then uninstall 3DMark 2003.
 
Now reboot the system and have it find everything again on the card, then install 3DMark 2003 again.
