    Yeah, mine is cool as.

    You got any peripherals plugged in that could be causing that?

    Sounds strange...

    On my 5792, I had to uninstall my Realtek driver and then install the one dated March 18, 2008 to resolve some problems I had after SP1.

    SLI and Dual Boot, hmm... do you have the issue when running XP?

    Have you installed your relevant SLI patches? Vistax64.com has a few good Microsoft links. 32 Bit patches are included as well.

    It might not hurt to open the back panel on your laptop and re-seat your cards if you are experiencing the same issues in XP, or after a good stress test.

    My final recommendation before we get some feedback from you is to examine your Event Viewer for any system related error messages. That can be a good source of RAID related issues, etc... So check that and please let us know if you've found anything out. Here's a link related to error reporting in Event Viewer.

    I'll have to get back to you on that, dexgo. The first score I got was around 12.8K running at 1280x1024. But that was at my basic system config. Since I've done some tinkering and upgrading I haven't ran 3dmark again. Plus, I'm slacking off while at work lol :p
