Bad performance, 8800gts, amd5200+ vista 32bit

Hi crew just got the digital download version of this (so i can play online) but im getting terrible performance arounds 10 fps :(
I got a decent PC as u can see and all my other games work fine cod4 @100fps ect. Am i missing something?

Does this game work with dual cores alright, seems to run fine when i practising but as soon as there is another cpu player (IE 1v1) on court my frames go out the door. So its seems to be the cpu players that are destroying my frame rates rather than courts or light ect.

Any ideas as its unplayable atm so im not to happy, btw run 06 on the same PC (retail cd version) with no issues.

Goods news searched around here and tried the 169.25 drivers, which has helped heaps. Have got online now and played 1 game, 5 ppl in the lobby atm.

Paid $20 aus for Download version.

If the fps is still low, try disabling one of your cpu's cores or running the game through the compatability wizard. I don't have Vista so I am just making suggestions. NBA Live doesn't always agree with high end machines like yours.

Download the latest beta drivers from nvidia.com, released a few days ago.
They helped a lot for me :)
