Thanks for your replies guys

I reckon I am around 6% down in benching, which to be honest I cant feel anyway so its not like I'm hurt or anything its just a surprise that I'm down so much on just about every benchmark.

Turtletrax please post the link up i will give the fixes a go & see what happens, I don't mind screwing up the install as I will probably re-load my array as dual boot knowing what I now know anyway.
