Video card slowdown issues.

I was playing WoW and getting more than stable FPS, and after an interface restart, I've been unable to get higher than 22 FPS (vs 30+) in most settings, leading to a sort of limping effect with the video.

Now I've started to notice the same interval stutter while watching video.

It's a crappy card (GeForce 440 Go 64M), but it used to work fine, and all of a sudden it's seeming to have performance issues...

No amount of settings tweaking can get the FPS to go more than +/- 5 FPS, background programs do not affect it at all

Anyone got anything for me?
 
Not an option.

If it's dying, I'd at the least like to know that that is the case and that there is no solution so I can just accept my fate.
 
I had a similar issue with my brand new 8800GTS, come to discover it was the drivers I had installed hadn't quite gotten themselves in right and the thermal shutdown part of it was fudged. I did an uninstall and driver clean again and it fixed it. The box with core shutdown temp in the control panel said it should shut down at 0 C, after a reinstall of drivers it fixed it. Just a thought.
 
Now wer're getting somewhere.

Throttle watch didn't show any signs of throttling (to my knowledge, didn't even have the throttle selectable @.@)

However, I don't know where to check for throttle settings, and I've actually uninstalled and switched to Omega and there was no change in performance ._.

Though, it's possible I installed them wrong, but issue being that the old drivers were fine up until a point...
