This may be a daft question but did you grab the 64bit beta drivers by mistake? Try www.guru3d.com for the latest nvidia drivers -- VRG Scotty© www.vistareadygames.com Register (it's free) and Use the Search for solution button to find the answer. |

| Re: Troubles with wow Are you 100% certain you are not running the 64bit version of Vista? Premium does come in a 64bit version. Go to Control Panel - System (Or Right Click on Computer and select Properties) It will say System Type: 32-bit Operating System or System Type: 64-bit Operating System As for WoW, you will NEED the drivers from the NVidia site installed for whatever version of Vista you are running to get 'proper' performance out of the game. The included MS Drivers do not have the necessary OpenGL acceleration that I believe WoW requires, so it is rendering everything in software instead of on the Graphics Card. If you have to, just try both the 32bit and 64bit version of Vista drivers, and see if either of them install. Once you get them installed, your game experience will be awesome. Good Luck..
