I seached my system for this file and its definately not there.

Is it a piece of DX9 I wonder?

It says I should still be able to run this, only last test is DX9.

Im bummed ... lol ... just spent 2 hours downloading this puppy too.... :p

I cant get to the website for help yet. It wont even load.

Ars Technica says DX9 is required, so time for you to install it. Hopefully you have Ghost or Drive Image so you can revert back to DX8 once you've tried 3dMark03.

Ditto, some of the people on these forums have loads of bandwidth to play with, why not share it for an hour or two for people to DL large/popular files? Have a look on kazaa (or kazaa lite, its better) for it, you can usually find anything you want on kazaa.
