When you guys run the ScienceMark 2.0 test? Do it THIS way:
==================================================
A.) Remove as MANY BACKGROUND APPS RUNNING AS YOU CAN, & even stop your EXPLORER.EXE SHELL using taskmgr.exe!
* An example post of someone doing this is here you can refer to & follow, has details, for BACKGROUND APPS CUTOFFS OPTIMIZATIONS:
http://forums.techpowerup.com/showth...138#post140138
---------------------------------------------------------------
B.) Stop as many services as you can using services.msc (or, via msconfig, whatever you are most comfortable with): You (@ least I can) can run with this MINIMUM SET OF SERVICES GOING (or just set ones you are NOT SURE OF, to MANUAL startup in services.msc):
- DCOM Server Process (it may be possible to DISABLE this one, but some apps need it)
- EventLog (may be possible to disable, but not 100% sure, because some security settings demand logging & if unable to log? System WILL shutdown!)
- Plug and Play
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC) - NEVER SHUT THIS DOWN or your system WILL LAG BAD!
- Security Accounts Manager
(Some of those? You may not even HAVE on XP, not sure anymore, but point is there! ABOVE ALL - If you are NOT SURE what to do here? Ask, or just don't do anything @ all... it can be 'somewhat risky')

---------------------------------------------------------------
C.) Lastly/Optionally, startup ScienceMark 2.0 (using its File Menu, Run Submenu to browse for it if need be on disk) & try it @ HIGH, or ABOVENORMAL CPU Priority!
(When you run it by rightclicking on it as you startup the program & it comes into taskmgr.exe's PROCESS tab view as visible, give the benchmark program THAT MUCH MORE CPU PRIORITY possible - then, RUN IT!).
NOTE: When you are @ highest o/c's possible for your rig? It can get "touchy" using HIGH cpu priority, SO, if you can't finish the test? Step down to AboveNormal or Normal CPU priority via taskmgr.exe on ScienceMark2.exe!
---------------------------------------------------------------
D.) When done: Restart services you need, via service.msc right-click popup menu or START/STOP command there WHILE IN THE PROCESSES TAB, & restart explorer.exe (your desktop GUI shell) using taskmgr.exe's File menu, RUN submenu item. Then, post your CPU-z 1.36 data & score in photos in this thread. Thanks!
