Hi, I have a Leadtek ti4200 128mb vid card, and 256mb of samsung pc2700. So... i was ocing my vid card with riva tuner, when i noticed it was jumpy/laggy on the nature test , i never noticed it before but it might have done it before too. Anyways, so i lowered vid card speeds to stock, and it still jumps, just a little bit less.Then i restarted,and in the bios i tried "relaxing the ram timing"(-Lt.Max) from .5 to 1.0 to see if that had any effect, but no, it was still jumpy in the nature test. So i then put fast speed for the cpu ram in the bios instead of user define for my ram, and i ran 3dmark and nature ran much better, but a little jump here and there. The second time i ran 3dmark, it started to jump again, still at stock speeds and i hadnt touched anything! If i put oc my vid card core, it jumps much more, but even at stock speeds, i dont understand why it would jump/lag. What is WRONG! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Thanks for your help!

I had the SAME problem!! Really freaked me out for a while, but finally figured out it was a driver problem. Try unintalling the Dets and letting XP install its defaults...the problem should go away (did in my case). Then you can reinstall your Dets and that should work! I thought I had cooked my card too hehe. Hopefully this will work for you too
