Where did my points go?

Did a little benching tonight with directX 9.0C and cat 4.9. I somehow lost..400 points.

And the second score is with HIGHER CLOCKS. How could I lose points with higher clocks? There were no visible artifacts during the run...so what do you think is causing it? 3dmark was run with realtime cpu priority and explorer.exe was terminated. Xp was optimized.

it looks like you ran your ram async by mistake or have something in the bios you set wrong. if that isnt the case, maybe you need a fresh install of win xp, something could be hosed or running in the background, maybe folding, antivirus?

All stupid processes were closed and it's 5:4 because my ram can't take 255fsb @ 2.8
