I've never used a benchmark program before, so please excuse any silly q's:

Is it normal for the 3dmark 06 CPU tests 1 & 2 to drop to 0-1 fps? I can't figure out why it is doing that, additionally, the entire 3dmark06 test freezes up my computer during the snowy scene and requires me to reboot via power button. I'm running an MSI 7900gt, AMD 3800 X2, 1gb RAM etc...

Any tips on how to change this would be wonderful.
 
as far as the cpu test dropping to 0-1 fps, that is normal. I'm not sure why its freezing on the snowy part of the test. Try defragging or changing your video driver.
 
The deep freeze test seems to be the hardest on the graphics, it shows artifacts before anyother test and even rthdrbl. If your computer's freezing in that test than your card's probably unstable. Either lower your OC (if you have one) or RMA it.
