First I'd like to say the i9100 is AMAZING!!
I've been able to play all the games i can throw at it at high settings flawlessly. I'll pick up Far Cry and Doom 3 later this week and really test its capabilities. But I'm concerned with my low 3dmark scores. I know it doesnt reflect game performance, but it is still upsetting seeing people with basically the same setup as mine scoreing roughly 1000 points higher. The highest I've gotten is 5400. My setup is:
3.2 GHz P4 with HT enabled
MR 9800
512MB Ram
40 GB 5400rpm HD
The only thing I see preventing me from scoring higher is the memory and harddrive. But I don't think that's it since 3dmark is primarily a graphics card test. All I have running in the background is McAffee Anti-Virus, and XP Firewall. Everything else is stock settings. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!

. My new score is 6439 which is great since I had other stuff runnning in the background. Again thanks for the help. My hard drive is a Fujitsu MHT2040MH if that helps.
