Too slow

ok I have a:
Athlon 1.13 / 266
FIC AD11 mobo (AMD 760 DDR)
128mb PC2100 DDR, CL 2

In Sandra my memory and CPU come out just where they should. But my real life performance sucks. It takes this thing 12 hours to do a Seti@Home work unit. It has been 4 hours and it is 47% done a Folding@home unit. I have tried all sorts of different BIOS settings, ram timings etc. I took the results with everything running normally as well as nothing but systray and explorer running. I have reformatted twice. I run WinME.
What gives. My PIII 667 was way faster.

Just a question....but have you installed all of the drivers that came with that mobo?? If not, that could be slowing it down https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

like KJY said, make sure you installed the 3-in-1 drivers...yes, 3 in 1...not 4 in 1. if you installed 4 in 1 drivers, that could be your problem also.

Asus A7M266
AMD T-Bird 1.2ghz 266fsb (fried, never fly with your computer)
replace above with a Duron 700mhz for the time being.
Thermoengine w/ Delta fan
256mb Crucial PC-2100 cas-2.5
Wester Digital 20gig 7200rpm ATA-100
Radeon 64mb ViVo
Plextor 12x10x32

Oh yes. I have the latest installed right now, and I have tried other versions too. It takes me 10 hours to do a folding unit too.

If you are letting the seti vidio run, 12 hours is not that bad.
