Same problem here.  After installing the dxr3 drivers, my 3DMark 2000 score
dropped from 6000+ to less than 3000.
I sold the card since the support from Creative Labs is very bad.  Had
difficulties to find a driver for the card and when I did, it was only a
beta.  Doesn't seem they're working very hard on the issue since the last
beta I found was from around october 1999!!!  And now nearly two years
later...
