Futuremark 3DMark Vantage freezes scanning system

Hi All

Been running some bench tests on a new system build (below) and having some problems with 3DMark Vantage

I've applied the hotfix issued in Nov by FTMark and either way when I click to run the benchmark, I get a pop up message saying "scanning your system - Please wait, this may take some time!" So I wait...and wait..... and nothing! It just stays like that. I've left it running overnnight and the thing was still running.

I've tried all resolutions, all variations on the tests selected - It's the advanced version - but no joy.

Any ideas?????

Ps - I get the same issues at stock speed - this build is stable
