    In advanced settings of Nvdia control panel and under the global settings tab, have you ever changed Threaded Optimization to On or leave it as Auto (default)?

    I heard that putting this to on, will boost the speed of your comp.

    Isn't that only if the GPU itself supports Threading isn't it?

    This is from tweakguides:

    "Threaded Optimization: Controls the use of multithreaded optimization for all 3D games on Dual Core/HyperThreading systems. The available settings are Auto, On and Off. I would strongly recommend the default option of Auto, allowing the drivers to set this appropriately for various games based on your hardware. Only turn Off for troubleshooting purposes if you believe a particular (older) game is not compatible with dual core CPUs."
