Hi ho
Anyone else noticed that Vista runs crappy when you set your desktop res above, say, 1,280 x 1,024. I've installed the last two MSDN releases on two completely different rigs (one Intel based and one AMD based). I've tried loads of different video boards. But always the same problem - intermittently sluggish rendering of the Vista desktop with the full aero jazz enabled. I've been having this problem when running at 1,920 x 1,200. Tbh, the rendering is jerky and stuttery about 90 per cent of the time. But occasionally you get a few moments of smooth window movement or video rendering. As soon as you reduce the res to 1,280 x 1,024 the problem disappears entirely. I'd love to run Vista as my main OS for a while, but this issue makes that impossible. Anyone had experience of this or know a fix?
