I just finished installing SP2 on my home computer. Now 3DMark 2003 crashes every time I run it. Sometimes after the first game demo, sometimes after the second, but always when attempting to load a new test. I've tried un-installing and re-installing, and it didn't help. Anyone else have any problems with this? Could it be DirectX 9.0c related?

Nope. I have SP2, DX9.0c and 3dmark03, no problems at all on a Nvidia card.

No problems here on a 9600 Pro; however, I used the DirectX 9.0C Redistributable Installer before I got the Redistributable SP2 Installer.

I've got an ATI 9800 Pro with the 4.9 Catalyst drivers. Could this be a driver issue? Maybe I need to reinstall the drivers after the SP2 upgrade?

I had a file corruption error during the benchmark test run and soon thereafter figured it was because I didn't defrag my hard drive in a good while :eek:

Defragged both my OS drive and my app drive last night. Still have the same problem. Wasn't home much of the night, so I haven't had a chance to try reinstalling chipset drivers, rolling back the Catalyst drivers, or anything else. Anyone have any other ideas I haven't thought of?
