NVIDIA recommends that its customers always stay up to date with the latest hotfixes from Microsoft. The following hotfixes are recommended for GeForce 6, 7, and 8 series customers running 3D applications on Microsoft Windows Vista: 1) Hotfix for GeForce customers running DirectX 9 and DirectX 10 applications: Virtual address space usage in Windows game development. (support.microsoft.com) This hotfix resolves abnormal application behavior such as crashes and extremely low frame rates when running some 3D applications at very high graphics settings. This issue is not limited to, but has been most commonly noticed on high-end graphics cards and the following applications: Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142, Civilization IV, Company of Heroes, Half-Life 2, Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth II, Supreme Commander, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas. In order for this hotfix to be effective, GeForce customers must also update to the latest ForceWare Release 163 drivers: Windows Vista 32-bit Windows Vista 64-bit 2) Hotfix for SLI customers running DirectX 10 applications: When a DirectX 10 application runs on a Windows Vista-based computer that has multiple graphics cards, the computer does not use the secondary graphics card. (support.microsoft.com) This hotfix resolves occurrences of low frame rates on some DirectX 10 applications when SLI is enabled. Performance improvements will vary depending on the application and the graphics driver version. additonal information (Original=http://www.titanquest.net/forums/hardware-software/19070-vista-nvidia-hotfix.html) i will update this later saying if it works or not x-] but just thought id throw it up in here for anyone interested	Codex (3761)
