*I am using the RC, so I'm curious to hear your reports of whether this is different in the RTM or not:
I was just fooling around with TrackMania Nations, benching the video in full screen vs. in a window. It runs fine full screen, smooth and whatnot, got 32 fps. Then running at the same resolution in a window the benchmark was terribly choppy and only got 6 fps. I thought "well maybe it's aero" so I turned it off and re-ran the bench in the window and sure enough my frames came back to 32 fps.
Isn't Aero suppose to disable itself in this instance? Or is it because it's in a window it doesn't recognize it's a 3D application?
