Well im still getting the frame rate drop even when I reset to defaults,I put it in windowed mode and it seems to happen when it downloads weather,my zone alarm goes crazy it is when ASX is updating,I thought it was ZA but if I shut it off it still does it..

Hi,ZA is very hard to shut down. Look on your Processes list and see if anything is still running. Also check your performance tab and see if there is a pattern in the CPU usage graph.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
