In standard uses, internet, the thing is great, couple times there was a little "waviness" in the display, but after reseting the refresh rate to 60 (only option) it cleared right up.
Now, this may be a side issue altogether, but, prior to installing, the framerate on the online game I play (WoW) was running 30-40...,now, I am running around 10-15....,not sure how to fix

Again this is a very bad unit for thouse who have Windows XP as this unit would not go to a good Pixels 1400x900 my XP could only go up to 1024x768 with some what good on screen, but the higher you set the Pixels the poorer the monitor screen got to look at.
