My computer:
-1.6GHz AMD Athlon XP 1900
-Iwill XP333-R Motherboard
-PNY 512MB DDR Memory
-MSI GeForce 4 Ti4600 Video Card
-Creative SoundBlaster Live! Sound Card
-Western Digital 30GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive
-Windows XP Professional

Okay, I've disabled V-Sync in OpenGL and D3D. I also downloaded some newer drivers. I have even removed all non essential hardware from my computer. But so far I'm still only getting about 7444 as my 3DMark 2001SE score. This is ridiculous! I have a GeForce 4 Ti4600. I should be getting scores of 10,000 and higher. I've even checked and double checked everything in the BIOS. I can't figure out what's wrong! If you can help I would greatly appreciate it. Frankly I'm not even sure who to get mad at. My mobo, processor, vid card, or myself.
Thanks!

Benchmark tests vary from system to system, true your frame rates are a little low. go to guru3d.com, download the detonator destroyer(?forgot exact name), it's on the left hand side at the bottom of the page

Okay, I think that there may be something wrong with my motherboard. I decided to reinstall Quake 3 and check the frames per second on that. For some reason it won't go over 90 FPS even at 640x480. This is very strange. I'm taking the card over to a friend's house and testing it in his computer, which is a Athlon XP 1800 on an Abit motherboard. If he gets better 3DMark and GLMark scores than me then I'll know that it is my mobo (It has issues with Windows XP). If anyone has any other suggestions I would be more than happy to try them out. Thanks!

For the longest time my graphics card (totally new gf3) was acting kind of slow. After hours of research I found software on my computer that forced 4x antialiasing, which really slows graphics down. Maybe this is your prob.
