I've been using Vista for almost 9 months now; I can't say gaming has improved with Vista in comparison to XP, but over the past few months Microsoft has released a lot of updates for the operating system which has fixed various different kinds of problems. There were two major performance updates a few months ago which did make things a lot better and we're still getting updates on a daily bases which is good and bad at the same time.

Ehmm.. So do you still have the 60 second lag spike problem? lol

Have a desktop running Vista HP and play PR/BF2 over a wireless adapter. No problems whatsoever.

Omg. So lucky!

What adapter do you have??

I have onboard Wireless using my Asus P5K-Deluxe motherboard. Its a

Realtek RTL8187 Wireless 802.11g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network Adapter

My router for the time being is a Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G 4 Port Cable/DSL Router. I find that combo works better than the standalone wireless card I was using on my old XP system (the internal card on that was a Linksys WMP55AG) it had sort of the same problem you describe and beyond simple net and email usage was very unreliable...

Well I decided to switch the Modem box thingy from one computer to this one, and give the other computer the wireless connection.

Just having some problems.. Had to go buy a BELKIN wireless adapter because my other one was too "high-powered" for the other computer. Or so tech support says.

Having some trouble, but will report back later.

I got the same problem as DarkHoodling when I installed Vista a couple of days ago, using a WLAN adapter when gaming etc.

Im sure that DarkHoodling has found a solution but for reference....

The solution that I have found and uses is a small appl. called "Vista anti lag" and is found via the link below.

Desktop, vista and wireless here and it is fine. I have a usb adapter, but the drivers for it don`t work with 64bit vista, so I just connect using the Vista "connect to" option. I don´t get any lag spikes.
