Vista RC1 x86
PentiumD 805 2.66Ghz
1GB
ATi x1600
When I first installed vista it was fine untill it got to the part when it
says testing your performance. That is where it just got stuck. I let it go
and the bar did not move for a very long time. ALT-F4 Closed the app. Not
sure if that has anything to do with the problem.
Vista ran really really slow. I assumed it was drivers so with about 0.5
frames per second I was able to install the ATi device drivers that I got off
the ati site (Vista drivers). After that it ran great. Wanting to do things
right, I rebooted right away. While it was shutting down everything ran
great. I clicked and dragged on the desktop a few times and the nice blue
selection worked. After the reboot, it went back to crappy performance!!!! I
couldn't understand what was happening! Booting into safe mode worked great
and I went to my device manager and updated my video card drivers to the
Microsoft supplied WDDM drivers. After rebooting out of Safemode, again it
worked fine. I thought all my problems were over, but then again after a
reboot, i'm back in the same situation. Right now whenever I restart my
computer I have to first go into safemod, rollback or update my drivers and
reboot again.
Anyone else having problems like this?
