HELP!! 3DMARK '03!!
My system is a:
Asus A7V600-X mobo
Duron 1.2 @ 1.3Ghz
Geforce MX 440 OC'd to 350Mhz GPU, 400Mhz RAM
1.5GB DDR RAM
(2) 40GB WD 7200RPM HD's
I only got 162!! Does that sound right?? i couldn't believe that! After seeing 13,000 by other computers, 162 just does not sound right!?

Yes, that is right. Your video card is a Direct X 7 card. 3dmark 03 is a Direct X 9 benchmark. Your video card can't even run all the tests in 3dmark 01 (which is a DX8 benchmark) let alone 03. Your processor is also on the slow side, relatively speaking considering whats available now.

Mark 03 is first and foremost a video card test rather than an all-round test of system performance (as 3dMark 01 was). As such, you need a relatively new card to get a decent score. Sadly the Geforce 4 MX series have never been particularly quick gaming cards, something reflected by your score.
You should make sure all graphical bells and whsitles such as AA, AF and V-Sync are disabled before benching, and you may wish to try overclocking your card:
