Changing color depth from 32 to 16 makes a small but noticeable difference. ---

Here’s a good test - try switching your theme to the most basic, single color, no-frills setup. Like a solid color background with animations disabled… Give this a shot and see if it makes a difference for the better: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-the-theme-to-improve-performance](http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-the-theme-to-improve-performance) If so, you can safely say that you’re hitting a bottleneck in resources, be it video memory or if it’s scavenging (slower) memory from the motherboard because it’s operation requires more than is physically available on the video card itself… ---

Its possible, but unlikely Do you have the actual nvidia driver installed jclark or just the one windows installed? Generally the one windows installs is a generic one from nvidia and may not work all that great, try going to the link Mike posted and downloading the latest one right from nvidia THat 6200 should be able to handle what your doing, hell I have an old AMD XP system with a GeForce 5200 that can run dual monitors without issue Start with installing that driver and well go from there ---
