cool, well if you find out, maybe drop a line here.

What would I give for a wife that games instead of rolls her eyes whenever I say it's game time...where does one find such a woman?

Cool, well that will give me something to try next time.

GTX 295 - most recent drivers

6gb ram

core 2 duo 3.0GHz

64 bit OS

I think i saw i post from you before about the gtx cards and you having issues.

I do believe though you were running a 32 bit system with 3gb of ram

I would defeinitly recommend upgrading to windows 7 64.... even if you have to get it free online lol..  I saw a drastic improvement in performance getting off vista 32 and going to windows 7 64

I could boast many times over about my wife, being a gamer is just icing on the cake.  :)

She is currently running the Nvidia 301.42 drivers.

Tried those drivers in a recent stress test, really still very bad performance, even at lowest settings, even with no one around.

Going to put my old 8800 gts in next time, just to see what happens.

I got around 20-30 fps in cities and 30-40 fps outside, but didn't do extensive testing on Saturdays Stresstest as it was really late and all I wanted to know was by general fps. To be honest I'm: 1 glad the game actually runs. 2 need to go back to windows 7 as I only put 8 on there because of blue screen issues, which were caused by something else and has since been resolved.

My system is just to dated in my opinion, but no money for a new one at the moment. Don't even think the videocard is really the bottleneck here.

Specs.

AMD 64  X2 6000+

6 Gig ram at 667 MHz

Nvidia 250 GTS latest beta drivers

Windows 8 consumer preview 64bit

1920x1080 resolution

Used low-medium settings

Your framerate looks awful, but I assume that's in part due to fraps.  What kind of motherboard do you have, and is your processor overlocked or stock?
