    Might as well.

    I'm guessing running programs won't hurt that much?

    I hate this test because it's way too cpu dependent that it should be

    3dmark is much better

    your CPU score should be higher than that,

    were you running other things simultaneously?

    no I ran it 4 more times today with basicially the same score and I even changed the priority to High with no really change. I agree that it should be higher for the cpu score. I dont know maybe its Vista thing not sure tbh

    Its's because your are running your rams 200MHz CAS5, put it on a divider or change the cas, then I'll update your score. Please post your specs to. CPU Z doesn't show the cards name or clocks.

    ahh dev's right I missed that.

    set it to DDR2-533 4-4-4
    fair deal better than DDR2-400 5-5-5

    heck chances are you coudl get DDR2-667 4-4-4 without issues.

    remember 4-4-4 is better than 5-5-5

    If my board was a bit less agressive in terms of it's memory configuration, my RAM could do DDR2-800 3-3-3 fairly easily

    CPU AMD am2 x2 5400+ @2.8GZ
    Motherboard MSI k9n4 SLI
    GFX evga 8500 256mb
    Memory mushkin 2GB DR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel

    Ok once I figure out how to do that I will change it

    You should do that in bios. Restart your PC, hit Del. Now you will go to the bios, Depending on what bios, you should see something like

    Motherboard tweaker / uGuru tweaker / CPU frequency voltage control

    I have to hit CTRL + F1 to see the advanced settings and I can change the latencies there. Depending on your ram, some need more volts then other to do the same frequency and timings. Be sure to use the dividers.

    Okay, that's better m8, now try a higher divider and leave the cas like it is. Try upping your voltage when it does not boot. Your aquamark cpu score still seems very low to me.
