MSI nVidia GeForce MX a fraud ???
I have the following components in my computer:
- Intel Pentium III Coppermine Processor - 751 MhZ
- SOYO SY-7VBA 133 Motherboard (VIA Apollo Pro 133 AGP/PCI Motherboard)
- 128 Mb of DDram (i think.. i'm not sure about that..)
- MSI nVidia GeForce 2 MX - 32 Megs
- VIA Sound OnBoard
- Windows XP Professional
..and i have the following problem:
When i play a game, with the setting for my computer (medium detail, recommended for these computer hardware setting) it makes about 15 fps, wich is unacceptable! In games like Quake 3 or Counter-Strike i get about 30 frames, on a 800x600 screen resolution, medium detail..!
On 3D Mark 2000 i get about 2000 points, and on 3D Mark 2001 i get about 1000 points... which is again unacceptable...! I tried programs like nVMax.. but the performances i got were even worse..! I have the latest drivers for my GeForce straight from nVidia.com, and for my mainboard and soundcard also..! By the way.. on windows ME/98 on 3D Mark 2000 i've got 1000 points, and on 3D Mark 2001, about 600 points...! On the medium detail tests in 3D Mark 2001 it was doing only 1 fps :( :( :( ! Pleez help me....!

That's unacceptable... even on my old Cyrix M-II box (300 Mhz) with Viper 550 video card (16MB), and 128 MB PC100 RAM, I have about 72 fps. You should check all your hardware settings, software things (drivers, directX,...) and search the net, perhaps you have to deal with a known bug... good luck.
Are you using the MSI StarForce 816 GeForce2 MX?
maximum3d got 4452 points with 3D Mark 2000 on a comparable system like yours.
and a much higher frame rate for Quake3, take a look at the results:

The MSI card can also be overclocked with the MSI 3D Turbo utility
