My system is as follows ....

256mb pc133 ram (upgrade to 512)
MSI K7tTurbo Via 4.32 (upgrade to Via 4.35)
Elsa Gladiac 32mb 5.13.01.1240 (upgrading to XP 21.83)


Before upgrade 3179
After upgrade 3081
New Video Drivers = 3234 after videocard driver update.

This is the default 3dmark 2001 Benchmark . Wanting to know why it dropped 99 points after upgrade ???? (nothing is Oc'd btw)


I'm currently downloading the new WinXP 21.83 drivers from Nvidia & will post new score after they're installed .
