Ok heres my deal i have a Asus 4850 512MB. In WoW my game FPS drops to like 6fps im running newest driver. this is on a 31' monitor with a q9450 4gigs ram in WINxp pro i have always had a problem with this card do this only in WoW no probs in anyother games. My past card a 8800GT would breeze through this. So im thinking theres a prob somewhere please help!
 
Did you reinsall windows after the videocard change or at least ran driver sweeper to remove all traces of old nvidia drivers?
 
Your windows sounds bloated. Check for things to uninstall, especially drivers.
Also uninstall ATI drivers.
With the new ATI drivers still uninstalled, Update Microsoft .Net framework to most recent.
Reinstall DirectX - I know, you shouldn't have to, but this sometimes helps.
Install most recent ATI drivers.
 
are you using onboard sound or a sound card? and do you have the shadows maxxed out?
 
I just saw you have 4GB RAM running WinXP Pro. Unless you are running "WinXP Pro 64-bit version" You cannot take advantage of all that RAM - I also know of instances where it hurts. Try only putting in 2GB of RAM being sure to still run dual-channel (I'm hoping you have 4 sticks here).
