Did you check to make sure all of your hardware (like RAM) is showing up in the bios/ hardware manager?bad preformance on a good pc.
where would i find that? and if thats the case what do i do?
Did you install the drivers that are on the CD that came with the motherboard? Also, try removing and reinstalling the GPU drivers.
Missing chipset drivers are liklely the issue with a freshly reinstalled build.
i dont have any cd that has drivers.
I would also make sure you do Driver Cleaner Pro if you uninstall or reinstall drivers. Also...go through your system ''Services'' and turn off the dozen or so extra things running that you don't need running. It does make a difference even in games that require more graphic card use. Not sure if you're using VIsta but if you are....there is a place to set your performance for you system between Balanced or Performance....I have mine set to Performance...it uses more electricity (Earth be damned!!) but it makes sure my system knows that I want it to perform top notch when I'm playing.
Sounds like you've got your work cut out for you.You are going to have to get all the model numbers off of your hardware (motheroboard, cpu, graphics, sound, network etc) anything that is it's own separate piece. Then go to the manufacturers websites and search for all available drivers and programs for that specific model number.Start with the motherboard, what is integrated (sound, network, modem), and your chipsets, make sure you download the most recent available. In some cases you will have to go to a chipset makers site to get better drivers, like Realtek, Sis, Via etc.The problem you have is when Windows installed, it installed default generic drivers for your system. You always need to update those with the ones the manufacturer recommends for those parts.Believe me, you will see the difference!
