Ayepecks Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 For some reason these updates seemed to decrease my performance in Half-Life 2 on my laptop. On my desktop I can't tell because I don't remember the FPS I got before installing them. Seems about the same there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wd40 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 You do know that these are Beta Patches? The Final Patches are due on Patch Tue. 14 Aug. They are official today, not patch Tuesday because this is a "Vista Performance and Reliability Pack". Not all updates come out on patch Tuesday.

M118LR Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 My suggestion is to read both KB articles. Between the two there are 59 files that have been updated. Also the build number of Vista has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayepecks Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I'm really not noticing any performance enhancements what-so-ever. File copying, gaming graphic quality, startup... nothin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Express Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 ^^Its the same for me too. No perf improvement. Then again Vista has always been reliable and I never had any of the perf problems described in the KB article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
