7 is fail for cpu test in 06, in xp that would've been 14k

Yep. 7 was crapola for the cpu test. Couldn't get GPUZ to recognize SLI in XP for some reason so did some 7 benches. Was only planning on benching AM3 on Win7, but I couldn't get into task manager and set priority. Gotta figure out how you guys set priority ahead of time and start doing that.....


Anyway, since AM3 wasn't working out I just ran the benches I had installed. Vantage was corrupted...gonna have to reinstall. 06 CPU test was at 6 GHZ :thumbsup:. That score is gonna rock when I do it on XP and can get some real CPU test numbers going.

After you start AM3, alt+tab out and then run task manager and set priority and make sure affinity is all cores (should be already if you renamed the exe file)

I've renamed file so cores are always good. Problem is priority. Frequently, when opening task manager it won't let me into the desktop with am3 running. Haven't figured out why. Doesn't do that with fresh installed windows as much. Maddening.

Going to single card next to work out all these damn bugs.

Thats weird.

Ctrl+shift+esc will open task manager also.

I've never bothered with changing priority for aq3 I'm usually so far on the edge of stability wheb I run it minimizing I would probably freeze

Task manager opens, am3 just won't let me see the desktop to do anything with it.

I've had this happen several times. I don't remember what OS I was using as it has been over a year now since I have benched 3D.

Fought my way up the OCA Ranks this month to #21 spot. My goal was to try and make the top 20 by the end of the month but I'm still waiting on hardware to come in. Maybe next month ;)
