Hi in the last month or so my computers score in graphics benchmarks went down A LOT e.g in 3dmark05 i used to get at stock speed 2000 marks now i get 1100 marks. I think i have damaged my vidcard its a 6600 at stock speed its speed is 300,500 i have had it running at 350,580 for a while my temps are good i guess. Ive downloaded the latest drivers for my videocard ,re-installed my latest mobo driver and downloaded the latest version of directx and the bios is set up.

My specs are:
AMD 3000+ s939 venice
ASROCK 939Dual SATA 2
Xpertvision 6600 AGP
1gb dual channel generic ddr400 ram
2 Samsung 80gb 7200rpm harddrives
Please help me!
