It seemed to help. Last night played Pipeworks with considerable less staggering than the night before. Now if Nvidia releases a better driver than they have now that would be great.

I tried it and now the windows in cpu usage history match up, I think thats a good thing.

But I can't tell anything different yet performance-wise because i was getting mad p/l last night, will try again soon.

i appreciate the link pork and I tried it but I think I did it wrong or something. Also the cpu test in 3dmark06 is getting 0-1 frames what the hell could that be. That was like that before and after the patch.

I don't know about the validity of the artical, but I can say in vista the cpu's are a closer match than what I had in xp. Xp was a lot like the first pic, vista more like the second.
