Far Cry
F.E.A.R.

Well i fired up the same map, stood in the same spot, aiming at the same object, and with vista I was at 53 FPS and with windows xp i was at 68 FPS
So yea vista does not support good FPS yet, till all the YO YO's release updated drivers that work with vista.

Lmfao... I dont know why MicroShite dont add the BETA fix to all their windblows releases... cos I mean lets face it, with the amount of bug fixes and patches they release afterwards it may as well be a beta.... hell M$ are worse than Epic for patching stuff.... at least the games industry can use the "netcode" and optimization excuses... with the money Gates has got he could afford to "entensively" test his releases a bit more. Im just gutted I cant seem to get the live install cd of unbuntu linux to run on this PoS... I wanted to get a feel for it before ridding myself of XP once and for all.
