well got machne back today and graphics are as bad as ever....they said they ran a 3d stress test and it passed easily but when i ran the same tests at home is was sluggish as hell.....so will be bringing it back in again .......i still think the crackling sound issues has something to do with it.......i reinstalled game and single player worked like crap...and oh yes forgot to back up profile so i get to start over when and if i get this fixed......DAMMIT....so will be on the old xp again forawhile i guess.....sound issues mess with vid?????

br careful about installing windows 7 unless you are sure your components are up to the task. it is a very good system and much better than vista, but it nonetheless built on the vista core, so if your system worked there finee; otherwise run a compatibility check first
