A few things though: TommyCompton suggested shutting down a lot of other stuff to run the benchmark; is that helpful?

Also, I have the most recent AMD Dual Core Optimizer installed, do I have t worry about the xp/dual core "hotfix" issue?
yup it will help with your cpu score to turn a few background processes off, and some people use both the hotfix and the optimizer and report good results. you will have to alter the registry if you want cool and quiet to still work.
