    Recently my games and videos are running real slow on XP.
    Especially noticeable while sounds are going, for example on youtube, sounds like its on slow motion.

    anyone have any ideas?

    I would uninstall and reinstall my bootcamp drivers if i were in your place and nvidia 185.85 did for me.

    Have you tried reinstalling your bootcamp drivers? What happened?
