    It means you have some background task that is demanding focus. When you benchmark, you need to have all programs closed. I see you have MSN running. That may have caused it. Perhaps you have spyware that is causing the focus loss.

    It doesn't much matter. Onboard graphics are total **** for 3D. You will not be impressed with your results.
