I think something is wrong because my 3DMark2001 scores suck.

My machine has a 900@1000 tbird, 256 pc133, 32Mb Geforce2 GTS and these are the results of the test:

Platform NVIDIA GeForce2 GTS/GeForce2 Pro
CPU Optimization D3D Hardware T&L
Width 1024
Height 768
Depth 32 bit
Z-Buffering 24 bit
Texture Format Compressed
Buffering Double
Refresh Rate Default

Do I have some setting wrong or is that what I should expect from the test with this machine?

what drivers are you using? I am using nvidia 10.80, duron 600@1000 and I get 3100...

 

[travisio]

Does 5.12.01.0631 sound right? Would I go about checking those in win2k by hitting the advanced button on the settings tab of display properties and then hitting the geforce2 gts tab?

I have a tbird 850 with Geforce2 MX
nothing is overclocked and i scored : 2050
so yes, there is definently something wrong with your setup.
Do you have the latest VIA 4 in 1 drivers , version 4.29??
if not get it at www.viahardware.com it helps alot
Also be sure you have DirectX8 installed as that helps out alot .

 

[zzzz]

ok 631 drivers(thats what you have) are quite old. get the newer drivers. For me the 1080 drivers worked quite well.

 

[travisio]

Where would I go about dl'ing them?

I had the same problem as you. I'm also running Windows 2000 Pro. I was using the 6.34 drivers and my score was 1967. But after I downloaded and installed the 10.80 drivers for Win2K my score jumped to 3093.

 

[travisio]

Cool where can I DL them from?

get them here ---> nVidia 10.xx drivers

 

[Oreo]

I think you need the VIA AGP drivers, 4.05 is the newest.

Remember, 3D Mark 2001 is basically an advert for the Geforce3 (Nvidia heavily sponsor MadOnion)......
