OK i just upgraded my windows xp to windows 7 64 bit. (ultimate edition) and I'm having some graphical issues. A friend of mine has done the same thing. with a 9400 gt and runs Champions online at 40 frames or so. I"m running at 15... and my card is Way beyond that (bfg tech gts 250 oc) I called tech support and was told windows 7 isn't supporting these cards so hot yet. But i've heard nothing but good from windows 7... This is the only problem i'm having with it.. But As far as gaming goes... I feel like i have downgraded my OS instead of upgrading... any thought guys? Thanks much.

its a continual ''work in progress''....
well games like L4D ran ok... But I got on champions online... and wow. and my frames have dropped terribly... I just can't understand why lol


Edit: i did the update again. and i did disk cleanup and some programs that weren't working right before are now working. I'm going to try getting my drivers and all again and see how things go. *crosses Fingers*
