Upgraded Graphics Card but 3D score down

[Guest]

Hi, i recently ugraded my graphics car from an Integrated nVidia GeForce 6150
LE graphics to a PCI express nVidia Geforce 7100 GS 256mb card.

However, my '3D business and gaming graphics performance' dropped from 3.0
to 2.6 after I updated my scores post-installation.

I have installed the latest drivers from Nvidia but still 2.6. i know this
is not a great graphics card but i needed the DVI and S-Video outs and it had
to be a low profile compatable card which this xfx product is. However, with
all the extra memory now devoted to graphics and a 7 series Nvidia as opposed
to a 6 series I would have expected my score to rise not fall! Any ideas, why
this happened or how i can change this?

Matt:
Have you disabled the Integrated Card in BIOS?

I have a dell with a 280 Watt DC Power Supply, its a sp[ace saving design so
doubt i could change this so easily! I have the bios settings right! oh well!
thanks for the help guy!
