Without getting hammered Roanan is probably on the mark.
I still run XP but I run it bare bones. No eye candy.
I've used the guide here for XP and have done so for a few years now. Word of Warning - Don't stuff around with the registry if you don't know what your doing.
And if you can't help yourself, please take a back-up of your registry first.

Oh c'mon, that should not be necessary to play an online casino, jeez.
These tweaks are useful if you run heavy music or video editing software, like Cubase SX for example.
Btw I have my XP tweaked from the start, no eye-candy, optimal performance, and it doesn't give sh*t.
No wonder, it was fine until the update, its crap after the update, so the problem is the update, simple as that.
AussieDave, 2x 8800GTS is enough to play Crisis on the highest possible settings, so its not really a surprise the casino is running fine, as its just simple 2-D.
I think many people don't even notice the difference between 60 and 85Hz. refreshrate, and just start swallowing aspirins, not knowing where that terrible headache comes from.
Roanan, you only play the freeroll, which is done in 5 min., try to play for 3 hours straight and then tell me everything works 'just fine'.
I think its the softwareproviders responsibility towards the operators to make their software accessable for as many players as possible.
Microgaming have dramatically failed here.
That we now need a PC thats solely capable of running the entire Kennedy Space Control Centre is nothing less than insane IMO!
