Ok, after a long day.

Woke up this morning, hoped on the computer and noticed that my soundcard wasn't working. Clicked on the speaker icon and it told me the active mixer didn't exist. So I went to the internet and ran one of the fixes, which promptly made my computer unstable so I decided to upgrade to Windows Vista.

I have a P4 3.2 with a gig of ram and a 260 gb hdd, a radeon x300 with I think a 128 mb ram.

The system runs fine, but I've noticed that on games like Madden 96 that the system runs choppy and stutters.

Do any of you windows geniuses have any ideas, I should have plenty of horsepower.
