hi sandeep

In your case i think some unwanted background programs maybe the culprit.Either they may be viruses or vbscripts.Try to full format your hdd's and then try.

Back up your data and try a complete format and delete all partitions.Reinstall the os and again check the fps benchmark and post the results.

Hope its gonna solve your problem.

Could you run GPU-Z see and see the link width you are getting for the card. The bus interface value shoud be @ 16.

If it is not @ 16, pull out the GPU, blow a few times hard into the PCI.E slot, and reseat the card.

It checks all the drivers and support files you have on your system pertaining to GPU/and sound. And if there is anything unwanted you can remove it (with a backup option). If there is any conflict you will see it.

Please create a roll-back restore point before you run it.

Did it show any files, from previous installations...?? You were not supposed to delete your current driver files...
