[Guest]

My video performance has fallen off the planet.

I using a Fx 5200 120mb board. I'm running in "dualview".

Unlike before I show only 1 video card (not 2) in device manager.
Everything seems to behave the same way but performance is not the great.

Any tips?

thanks

Yeah, if you want high video performance then run an OS that is tuned for
applications and not for services.

This site http://www.msfn.org/win2k3/index.htm has info on how to make
Win2k3 server behave like a desktop client OS. By default, graphics
acceleration and Direct3d are disabled to guarantee better reliability
since Microsoft assumes that you would be using Win2k3 as a server OS,
though these features can be easily enabled through the Display
properties and DXdiag.

Make sure your Windows 2003 Display Properties > Advanced > Troubleshoot
[tab] is set to Full for Hardware acceleration.
