In a foolish attempt to squeeze that extra muscle out of my system I tryed installing the latest hyperion VIA 4in1 drivers. Since doing so my Sisoft sandra 2004 benchmark score has dropped alot (especially my MIP in the cpu benchmark has gone down by atleast 400) and in 3dmark2001SE on game 1 I am getting much less fps!!, my whole 3dmark score has dropped by around 700 too!!! I have tryed to install my previous 4in1 VIa drivers (4.35) but has not restored my previous system preformance, please help, its very important to me and the viaarena drivers forums arnt sending me my new registeration details.. thanks to whom ever can help
