I have been running Vista RC1 for a while now, first with a GeForce 4 MX graphics card, and now with an ATI Radeon 9550. Now, with the new graphics card that supports Aero, Media Centre is slow and unresponsive, to the point were it's just unusable. It wasn't this bad with the GeForce4, I could still use it even though it was still jumpy.
Has anyone got any idea on how to fix this? I've tried ATI's drivers as well as those from Vista, and nothing will fix it.
The 9550 should not be a problem as I've trialled one with Vista RC1 and it worked no problems. It was with a clean install so perhaps you need to get rid of any traces of the Nvidia driver (or do a clean install ). More memory is always good for Vista but if it worked with the GF4 then that should not be a problem.
