Hi all !
Today is not my day after all :( Well I got my watercooling setup working again ( I had troubles with a pump ).

Right now I'm at

2.26 @ 2.81 (165 x17 )
512 RAM @ 165 FSB
Radeon 9700 @ 310/351

mo/bo Abit BD7II Raid
Win XP SP1 - DX 9.0

All the latest drivers, Chipset drivers installed, Application Accelerator too.

First thing I did was to check:
memtest 3.0 ( passed )
Prime 95 ( passed )

3DMark 2k1
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=5902513
:bang head :cry: :bang head

I thought that I will eat 3D Mark now ;( Anyway I noticed a few probles too.
My PC started to beep at times when running 3D Mark. I really can't say why. Temps are OK ( 54 on load, but I know that sucker is lieing ). Only other thing that is bad is
"Vio" ( I use Winbond Hardware Doctor and it displays it that way )
I think that it should be 3.3 V but it is jumping down to 3.18 and it is never stable. All other displayed Voltages are pretty stable and in boundaries of min - max. But this one is always at the edge of minimum ;(

So these are my problems...
3D Mark worth **** and Beeping thing ( I never noticed it in other applications or something and last time I run 3D mark it didn't show up )

What is wrong ? Why do I get sucky scores in 3D Mark and is this 3.3 Volt thingy important ?!?

Any help would be appreciated !
Thanks in advance!
