The title says it all--I'm running XP32 and Vista64 as a dual-boot--system config as follows:
Intel Q6600 OC'd to 2.7Ghz
2GB DDR2 Buffalo RAM running @ 300Mhz
DFI Inf 975X/G--FSB running @ 1200Mhz
Visiontek 3850 256M graphics card--Cat. 8.2 drivers
Creative Audigy 2zs sound card, etc., etc.
Crysis patched to Ver. 1.1
XP Service Pack 2 and all updates
Vista64 with all updates
Crysis runs smooth as butter with settings at High under XP32. Try as I might I cannot get anywhere near as good of performance with Vista64 under Dx 9. I get nothing but constant slowdowns, freezes, etc. with Vista64 using Dx9. Driver wise I've tried Cat 7.11, 7.12, 8.1 and now 8.2 including the ATI Hotfixes for Crysis--same results.
Does anyone have a similar config. and experience with running Crysis on XP32 and Vista64. I'm trying hard to like Vista64, but Crysis is holding me back--any suggestions??
