Everything except the plane demo runs super slow.

Any ideas?

Nothing assuming your talking about 2003 your score seem normal. You did compare scores online?

Yeah, 2003 scores are typically alot lower and won't be an accurate representation of games for a while, probably . For instance, I got 1600 in 03 and 11000 in 01SE.

Thanks. It's a P4 2.53 by the way.

What is the "defacto" benchmarking software, 3dmark 2001?

When running 3DMark03 with a video card that doesn't support DX9, don't expect a good score. The best thing you can do is compare the FPS for the first 3 tests as the 4th test won't be supported. Stick to 3DMark2001 for now.
