I agree with everyone's opinion that drivers are a major issue here. I had a
really bad problem with gaming and believe it or not it turned out that the
problem was my Logitech mouse. The driver was conflicting with something
else causing stuttering. I obtained a new Microsoft keyboard/mouse combo
with the certified for Windows Vista symbol on it and everything seems to be
fine. Nvidia only just recently released some drivers for their chipsets so
check this as well on their website assuming you have an NVidia chipset. The
video drivers need some tweaking but that will come in time.

Was that mouse the G5 or G7 ? In case you didn't see I had that problem with
the G15 Keyboard. Just crazy I say !

As others have said, the drivers are still in an early state (especially the
Nvidia drivers which they themselves have even said are poor), it'll take a
few months before performance gets really good in gaming on Vista.

If you want a quick fix, get an ATI X1950Pro..... I am not kidding. I have
an 8800GTS and I went out and got the Sapphire X1950pro to just get some
decent performance and stability under vista.......
