Vista Beta 2 Nvidia driver problem

Posted: 05-26-2006, 03:34 PM
I recently installed Vista Beta 2, I have been testing Vista with each new
build. Nvidia released new drivers to go along with the Beta 2. When using
those drivers, or the ones that already come w/ Vista the result is stutting
window movement and usage. For example, when I run a screen saver, it seems
to stutter every second. I installed the older drivers that were included
with builds 5365 and previous (87.45 nvidia driver). When I install this the
stuttering is gone. Why are the newer drivers causing my vista to stutter.
It makes it seem like my cpu usage is high even though it is not. I am
wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. My videocard should be more
then able to handle it. 6800gt. My computer is also fairly new. Any
solutions?

I would also like to add that I first had this problem with the last build,
5381, with the drivers that were included with it, being that they were
updated from the 5365 drivers
