I had something similar happen the first time I ran 3DMark 2001. It turned
out that I had FSAA enabled in the driver. I thought that since 3DMark
said "No AA" that it had turned off the FSAA, but it turns out that the
application can't override the driver level user settings.

Thats what the "application preference" option is for.

That's true, but there are a lot of games out there that don't know what
FSAA is. I originally thought that setting it in the driver would set a
default for those games, while allowing the other ones to set it.

What I'd really like to see is per-resolution FSAA settings, so I would be
able to set 4x FSAA for low resolutions and lighter ones for higher
resolutions without having to manually change it all the time.

Your cpu is bottleneck.
Also driver 44.03 should give you optimal performance.

i built the machine myself but when i was picking up the components the
salesman said this new board just came out, great for gaming, same
price... so i swapped but hey i was 14 and wanted to through the 486
so i accepted

all i can find is P4IBAS i will see what a search in google reveals

What is the brand and model of the machine? When it starts up does it
show any information about brand or model? Are there any markings on
the board itself--if not a brand or model then at least an FCC ID? In
Device Manager, under"System Devices" is there anything about Intel,
Via, or SiS?

Actually, according to the tech support of most games, including Vice
City,
Enter The Matrix, and a couple others, they recommend using the 43.45
drivers, and staying away from the 44.03's.

I have a 1GHz Athlon and get 3000ish 3DMarks with an MX440. I would've said
that his RAM was the bottleneck, although I'm not qualified to rule out the
CPU. Could be either.
