Yup, it's valid XML since IE is displaying it without error.

What are you expecting it to do?

That's how XMLs look like it a web browser.
You won't get the summary like what Heaven Benchmark gets.

You can take a screenshot of the summary in game after the benchmark is complete.
Otherwise arrange it through notepad or spreadsheet, but still won't look like the display which heaven gives out.

I tried taking screen shots, but they just come out as black nothingness, so I will be attempting it again with fraps.

I think I have taken screenshots of DiRT 3 with steam.
I'll give it a go to see if i am correct in a bit.

EDIT:-
Added dirt3.exe to the non steam games list and launched from steam.
The screenshot worked.
