icon Vista Slowness? (0)  
Well, I'm running windows vista as of very recently, and I been trying out dugan's dungeon, but it runs terribly slow when a couple of enemies are onscreen, and I have no idea why. I searched the forum and found one thread on this, but it apparently went away for those people in JtRH. Now I know Vista is a horrible processor hog, but I would expect DROD to run more smoothly than Oblivion. I've tried running in compatibility mode, but to no avail. If I have system monitor running in the background, I can see that my CPU usage is 100% while running DROD, and it drops down to nothing when it's minimized, so I'm getting the impression that for some reason my video card isn't helping out in the process of running DROD. Are there any ideas for fixing this? Am I the only one with this problem?

What version are you using? Is this the Architects edition? Journey to the rooted hold? King Dugan's Dungeon 2.0? (in which case, it's the same as Journey to the rooted hold) or The City Beneath?

King dugan's dungeon 2.0. Sorry, I can't believe I forgot to mention that.

Edit: Well, I made a wonderful discovery known as a patch, and now it runs perfect! I feel kind of dumb now...
