Someone please give me some help.  I had 1800 mhz AMD XP based machne
with a 64 meg nvidia geforce 2 video card with FPS at about 120.  I put
together an ABIT KV7, AMD XP 3000, NVidia FX 5500, 512 meg memory and
only acheived a new frame rate of about 150 max.  I tried another video
card, NVIDIA 6600 GT and acheived the same results as the FX 5500.  I
even went so far to reformat and reload just to ensure the 6600 GT was
on a fresh operating system but to no avail.  I used 3D MARK to test
the 5500 and the 6600 GT and achieved the results you would expect from
each upgrade.  I have used the "Secret time test" with framerate
uncapped (999).  Please help I am perplexed.
