Need for Speed: Most Wanted and possibly other games...

[Christian]

The game stutters! I cannot play it without it stuttering, I turned the
graphics to the lowest avaiblible and it kind of helped but I used to be
able to play full high settings on XP... I disabled Aero and Superfetch
(main culprit because of HDD and memory access), but have yet to try, I want
like 700MB of RAM avaibible, not half. I have only a gig of RAM. Tell me how
to fix the stuttering to help it make the games smoother.

Christian,

try running the game in 98 Compatability Mode,

That should be unnecessary. I *personally* have run most DirectX (as
opposed to OpenGL) games under Vista (including NFS Most Wanted) with zero
issues (ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe, P4 2.6 Northwood-C, 1 GB DDR400, ATI 9700 Pro,
Audigy 2 ZS Gamer LE).
