synth,
did you delete benchmarks.dat from fahmon, and calculate by last frame only. then let it sit for about 10 minutes without touching the pc. that's strange you didn't see an increase. something else is messing with it.. loony had an issue yesterday reporting no increase, and then reported back he did have an increase a couple hrs later. so maybe he has some insight as to what he expericenced, maybe you're having the same thing happen.
