I've upgraded my graphics card from a 7600 gs to a 9800 gt and for some reason now my frames per second are running lower now then they did on the old card. i have updated the drivers for the card. does anyone have any idea why my card would be running worse now then my old one did. thanks for the help.

Make sure u didn a clean uninstall of your 7600GT driver and then install the 9800GT,here is how:

First uninstall your current VGA driver,then download and install Driver Sweeper,after that restart and go to safe mode then bring up Driver Sweeper and clean what its left,y have done a clean uninstall now,then boot up normally and install the new driver.
