Uhh...so I installed XP64, and updated everything: Windows, chipset drivers, 6800GT drivers, etc. Then I decided I would see if CS:S performed any better...it definitely does. At 1600x1200 4xAA 16xAF it doesn't hitch anywhere, except for one thing: at random points, sometimes every 20 seconds, sometimes every 4 seconds, the game will entirely freeze and all the sounds playing at the time will loop ridiculously fast. The framerates before and after these little seizures are always fine, over 80.
I'm downloading Aquamark now to see if the problem carries over into that. Does anybody know what would cause this stuttering problem?
Alright, just tested 3dmark2001SE. Same thing: total freeze every few seconds, blazing besides that. These are the 71.84 drivers...I guess I'll uninstall and attempt another set?
