Lickety Split, why would his video card affect cpu, memory, and hard drive performance. If this was the case then that benchmark would be useless. If he happens to have onboard video, memory scores could be affected, beyond that, any effect would be due to bad driver implementation or a crappy benchmark.

Gangolf: Maybe try installing hipset drivers.

I agree with Matt, sounds like a chipset driver update may be in order. You are running on pretty nice hardware there so you shouldn't be getting crappy scores, so it points to a software or firmware problem.
