I can not find the vsync d3d control in the latest drivers? I see it for opengl, but not d3d, must be on, its killing my FPS.

If you don't feel comfy about the procedure, do a search in google for vsync utilities. As long as u don't delete anything you should be fine though.....<cough> <cough> start-->run, in run box type "regedt32"-->enter expand the hives (click on the + symbol)in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak. highlight NVTweak by clicking on it, once highlighted (the folder should now look open), look on the right side window, choose "new" ..only thing u can choose :)--click "DWORD value" -->new entry will show up "New Value #1" --> remane this to "CoolBits", yes, capital C and capital B, no spaces no quotes.--> now, right click on "CoolBits" and choose modify. In the pop up box, set "value Data" from 0 to 3. exit/close regedt32. now, when you go to your vid. properties, in the 3d page you will now see a "more direct 3d.." button on the bottom, click on that and you'll find the vsync settings. BUT wait! there's more! you'll now see a new option "clock freqencies" which allows one to o/c the vid card. enjoy cheers
