3d Mark 11 Driver Issue?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
So, I recently upgraded my CPU and Mobo. I was getting average 3d Mark 11 scores. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4603974
Then I installed Windows 8 preview and updated Nvidia driver to version 306.97. Now the graphics score is the same or better, but the physics and combined tests are terrible. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4657506

I'm assuming this is just a driver issue, but can anyone confirm that? Is anyone else having the same problem after installing 306.97?
How can I rollback the driver to the last version?

Make sure your DX/Physx Package drivers are up to date.

Looks like the problem was that I was running 3d mark in Windows 7 compatibility mode. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4657950
Physics score is still a little low, but not as bad as before.
