Hi there,

Been a long time since posting in here but i'm visiting my folks at the moment and have just been continuing to play Crysis...albeit very poorly.

I did the first thing i usually do to see what's wrong and download 3dmark06 to see if it was right. The system I'm playing on is my fathers Dell XPS H2C 710, this has a Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme QX6700 2.66Ghz @ 3.2Ghz, SLI 8800GTX and 4 GB of RAM although only using 2-2.5GB due to running under XP(stupid dell selling it to him like that) and a nForce 590Sli.

The last time i had a PC i got like 6100 odd marks in 06 which was with a X1900XT-X on it's own a couple years ago and since then have departed from the PC scene so i have lost touch with how to do stuff so am asking what to do.

The trouble is the PC is only getting 10570 marks!!! Is that right? Surely it can't be? Is there any settings that i need to set in the control panel? I have SLI on and am running beta drivers of 177.92.

Thanks in advance...
