1.0 Score on Graphics and Gaming Graphics

I keep getting 1.0 subscore on graphics and Gaming Graphics. I'm using a
GeForce 8800GTX. I've installed drivers from windows updated and now recently
installed drivers from nvidia. I've clicked on both Refresh Now and Update my
score. Anyone know why this keeps happening?
