I have just upgraded my graphics card from a 6800le to a x1950 pro but I am getting similair scores, of around 10,000 on 3d mark 03. This sounds very low compared to others on the 3dmark site. The rest of my systems is as follows and I am using the latest drivers.

Opteron 165 @ 2.4
2gb corsair ram
Epox 9nda3+ motherboard.

I used to only have 1 gig of ram too, albeit at slightly tighter timings.

Any ideas?

Ignore 2003 as it even wants to run 24bit Sound tests.

Your card is DX9C so 2005 if you want a pure GPU score or 2006 if you want a CPU/GPU Score. :)

Fair enough, I will download '05 and '06. However I would still expect the score to be a lot higher with my 1950 vs 6800.
 
Did you properly clean out the nVidia drivers before installing the ATi card?

By properly I mean uninstall via Add/Remove then run DriverCleaner or DriverSweeper to remove all the leftovers. If you didn't, make sure you fully remove the ATi drivers using that method and also the nVidia remnants before reinstalling the ATi drivers.

I did a complete clean install so things should be ok.
