I have an x800pro, along with a AMD 3000+
About two weeks ago, I installed 5.4 Catalyst drivers. After I rebooted and started up my games, I noticed a HUGE performance hit on The Sims 2 and HL2. Before the "upgrade", they were silky smooth. Now, there are noticable drops in framerates (we're talking like 20 FPS lost in the Sims 2) and just general ugliness.
I uninstalled 5.4 and went back to the previous version (5.3?), but the performance hits remained. Is there something that I did to the registry that might have killed the performance? What can I do to bring it back up? Need any more information or specs? HELP!
