AND I HAVE AMPLE COOLING FOR MY CPU.VOLCANO 7.
PLUS A KOB 85 CASE AMD / P4 APPROVED.
WIN XP PRO (ALL THE LATEST UPDATES)
now i no this system could get a score on 3d mark 2001 of 3789 and thats ok cos my graphics card aint the latest and best. but now im only getting a score of 3466 if im lucky..and this is after a fresh install with the latest 4-in-1s from via.
i own my own shop and have fixed every problem im faced with..but a problem like this is not easy to solve.i was wondering if anyone else has this problem on a simaler setup.and no it does not overheat and its not overclocked ..nor has it ever been overclocked.
ive shut down all the things that i can that might affect performance but with no change.
its not any of my componants because its tha same setup i had when it was scoring 3789.
its not a major problem but i no about computers and have tryed everything. any ideas.

Did you use any tweaks before? Did you change your memory timings in BIOS?
Since the machine is running just fine and it is the speed you are concerned with, try this - http://www.pcpitstop.com/ . This website is free. What it does is go through your system and evaluate it and sometimes tells you what you can do to improve performance. It isn't a site that can examine the machine to the nth degree, but it can hit a few things you haven't thought of.

Ignore it, benchmarks are for those who feel the need to compensate in, other areas...

Youll probably get more answers over at www.madonion.com, every other post over there is "is my score ok?!?!"
