No one seems to be answering me on tomshardware, so I was wondering if anyone knew here. I got Vista Ultimate awhile back, and when I installed it, everything seemed to be fine. When I tried to play a game however, I was getting much slower frame rates then usual. For instance I played Rise of Nations on high at 1280X1024 with a stable 60 frames with XP, but when I switch over to Vista, I leave at the default settings (which is not all high) at 1280X1024 resolution, and I get 35-37 frames. I looked in Nvidia control panel system information, and it told me my Bus was running at AGP 0X. Is there a driver fix for this, or is this because I only have 1 gb of RAM? edit: I have an AMD Athlon XP 2800+, with 1gb of ram. I have nvidia motherboard drivers installed (except IDE and Gart which i read somewhere don't work) I also tried using the vista display drivers, and nvidias drivers, both with low fps.

Video Drivers are still somewhat shaky in Vista at the cost of framerates usually. What Video card are you using?

I am using a 6600GT 128mb AGP card, but vista tells me in dxdiag it has 322mb, because it says its using some from my computers ram.
