I think I figured out the problem. My Radeon x1900xtx seems to be clocking itself at 500mhz core, 594mhz RAM. Isn't it supposed to be 650Mhz core, 775Mhz RAM? I tried clocking it up to those settings with ATI Tray Tools, and the fan suddently went from silent to loud as hell, and then my system froze and my monitors turned off, so I quickly hit the reset button. What the heck is going on here? I've also noticed that during the 3DMark06 tests, the fan never makes any noise, so I'd assume that it's not clocking the speeds up only during active 3d rendering.

When you're at the desktop it clocks down to 2D mode which I think is 500core, 600mem.

DOH!

If you're using ATI TT or ATI Tool, make sure you disable ATI Hotkey Poller through services.msc

UNINSTALL ATI TOOL AND ATI TRAY TOOLS

Try defragging. Even though the installo is new, it can still be fragmented.

Doesn't each test fit completely in the RAM?
Have you ever seen 3DMark access the hard drive during any of the tests?

Defragging works I tells ya.

Defragging works I tells ya.

True that. Happened to me once -- I got like 1000 points less than usual till I defragged.

LOL, I just looked at disk defragmenter - 38% fragmentation.

GUess I'm defragging tonight,
