Bloodcraze

poof where do I even start.

Well about 2 months ago I built a new computer with these specs and windows x64 ultimate

-Q6600 Intel G0 rev Quad core
-Evga 680i A1 mobo
-2gigs Corsair XMS2 PC-6400 CA4
-350gig seagate 16mb cache sata 2 drives in raid 0
-Evga 8800GTX 764mb
-Zalman CNPS9700
-Thermaltake 1000w 4rail PSU
-Thermaltake Armor case
-Fatal1ty X-FI Soundblaster card

So anyways to start with games run HORRIBLE well.. Select games and im not talking old games.

To start out with Crysis runs horrible. I did the Auto detect and it put almost everything on highest I go to play it. It looks like your trying to play it on a Barton 2500+ with a 9800pro on max its so horribly choppy. Its def not the Vsync either. I have a Samsung 21 inch 2ms LCD. I really duno what the deal with that is.

Next World of Warcraft runs so bad. Like 50-60 FPS tops with max settings and thats def not right. I just bought a nice new laptop with a 8700M and 2 gigs of pc-6400. On nearly the same settings just a little smaller res I get 250-300. Now if you go to run it in window mode on my desktop wow its even worse. Its like 100% chop.

Ontop of that when I first installed vista a week or so I noticed my HDD light was ALWAYS on. Well I went to defrag it one day and it was sched to defrag daily. So i turned that off but STILL almost 3 weeks later its still always "working" and I have no idea why. Is like its always moving files or something I just dont get it, Under the process list theres nothing using CPU , I will have to say I think my physical memory usage is a little higher then it should its about 48-52% always. I scored a 5.9 on the windows vista thing too then my ram scored a 5.4 no idea why.

I have got 2-3 blue screens in the last month and my 680i didn't spit any numbers at me so im gonna guess it was a video card driver issue or it was ram.

I just would like to have my games run how they should I dont understand it at all.... and the window mode thing is SO lame. I play most games in window mode because I like to multitask

Anther thing that I think is just a problem with my monitor or drivers or something is when I go to a res that is not my desktop res it makes it look like a "DvD" instead of resizing it for that res, I havnt figured that out yet...

Yes I have the newest drivers for everything. i just got the new Nov 3rd or 8th drivers from nvidia no change... So any help would be nice im like 2 seconds from trashing vista because it never did this on XP....
