3D Mark 2005 Score
hmm.. I might have to reinstall my brand new laptop. Seems as if it is too slow for what it should be.
I got a 3DMarks score of 1041 and that is really slow, or is it?

That isn't that bad, especially from the 8600 laptop (if your signature is correct). I'm getting nearly 1400 with an XPS laptop on the 05 program. The 05 program is a lot more demanding than previous versions. This is expected as new hardware emerges into the market every few months and they need something that can really tax a system for a year or two.Enjoy your laptop, don't bother to reload it. You're right on par with the rest of them.~SCMy 3D Mark 2005 is about 1400 also. I was stunned to see the 50% drop versus my desktop which has the Radeon 9800Pro 256MB card in it. I guess there is a huge difference between the 9800 mobility and the 9700 mobility. I have the 9700 mobility.
I can play DOOM III with ease though, so who cares what the benchmarks say!
