NYC
I have MBP and recently installed XP on it. I installed some of the games that I have on it and some work fine and others are buggy. Battlefield 2 and True Crime Streets of NY works great. Madden 06 and The Davinci Code are REALLY bad, sometimes audio is quicker than video, the screen skips frames. Anyone have any idea why some games would work and others would work bad. They all installed fine but those two games are sooo bad that its impossible to play and it would be a waste of money if I cant get them to work.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Make sure you've downloaded and installed the latest video drivers from ATI's website.

BE CAREFUL!

There was a reason apple supplied it's own GFX card drivers. The ones on ATI's website may not work AT ALL.
