-last of all, try winXP if u can.

You dont have to goto your DirectX directory just go start menu then goto run and type dxdiag, saves a little bit of time

I played Live 2003 using Win98 and the graphics really took a beating, then I switched to Win XP and I can now enable all the settings to the max 1280x1024 (for my PC) and it ran smoother than Ray Allen's jumper.
It's really the OS incompatibility, duh. Hope they'll release a patch, hmm.
