I got on TS tonight with nuther oldguy. He had me download a really cool software program called 3DMark 2001 SE (free!). It runs benchmarks on your vid card. The cool thing about it is you can make a change in the program and immediately run a test to see if that improves your score. You can get the program at futuremark.com.

BTW - part of my problem was the Aperture size setting in my BIOS was set to 128. I was able to up it to 256. I still have some more issues to work out though. dagnabit!
