FPS much lower in vista than in xp...

Posted: 08-28-2006, 08:55 PM
While running counter-strike source full tilt at 12x10 in xp i get about
100-250 fps, that rarely drops under 70 or so. However, when i switch to my
vista hard drive and try to run the game it gets about 30-40. I installed the
latest drivers from nvidia, with some difficulty, and made sure the rest of
my drivers are up to date. Has any one else experienced the same performance
loss? I had read that gaming was supposed to be way better in vista, and it
seems to be quite the opposite...
