I mostly play Grand theft auto sanandreas, need for speed most
wanted and halo. But after upgrading to vista GTA and NFS both
lag and halo's sound is sort of choppy. Can anyone help me fix
this?
Dave Cox said:You might try checking the Vista Games groups......or see if the game
distributors have any patches for Vista.
May I ask why you decided to upgrade to Vista, especially if your a PC
gamer? Any research I have done on gaming on a Vista machine at this
time shows that XP is by far less troublesome and faster (for games
designed to run on XP not Vista). You really can't expect a game to run
flawless on an OS that wasn't even released when the game was
developed can you? Those games were designed for XP not Vista.
I upgraded for the new security and the version of xp that came with my
computer for some reason kept saying that I was a victim of software
counterfiting so instead of buying xp i baight vista because they were
basicly the same price. I never thought about what my gaming would be like
at the time.
Did you actually have a pirated version of XP?
Be truthful, please.
What difference would that make to Gaming?

As said in my specs, 768MB soon to be upgraded to 1.25GB is that enough toPlato said:How much RAM do you have?

make an increase in gaming preformance.
I dont think my system can fit up to 2gb because it only has one slot left,Scotty© said:not really...1.25GB might just keep the OS happy, you want to be looking at
2gb+ for gaming
