yeah i noticed that aswell when i tried Vista before...
Refreshlock didn't get any good hz with vistas gpu-drivers back then, but i was hoping that the drivers would be better...?

and Vista runs perfect on this generation dx10 gpus, but just in gaming-mode with CRT-monitors the drivers seems weird hertzwise

Have you tried powerstrip?

d2.cpe: DX10.0 gpus are already in. Been for a year or so. We are waiting now for vista sp1 and DX10.1. It has dual core support right in dx. It will take the DX10.0's place.

I use Vista and it seems OK, although I also use TFT monitor now so dunno about this 100hz limit.

One thing I do get every now and then is FPS lag where I will get a little pause every couple of mins (maybe due to hd access?). But, I can't be sure of the cause because I've changed so much since I played properly - I'm also using ezquake with that fps independent thing now and dual core cpu instead of single core.

It does a whole lot of stuff background. Logging events, sending shit to ms how they could improve it, crash reports are checked regularly for solutions, update checks, filesystem indexing. Even firewall logs stuff and most of all, memory system isn't as advanced as it would require. It also have background defrag services and performance optimising. New driver base also doesn't help for now. I'm talking about 32bit version,
x64 is even worse. The system itself seems powerfull and it already has less bugs than xp before sp1.

I'm so waiting for SP1. Rumour says that they will add full winFS, missing features, heavy bugfix pack and dx10.1.

Whole Windows Vista is pretty decent but I'm still waiting for it to mature.

EDIT: I accidentally typed 10.5 earlier, fixing it.
