Video performance oddness
Those are 2D vs 3D graphic enviroments. 3D being more intensive on the card. Did you try running things at a lower graphic lvl. Lower shadows, world detail, and make sure ambient occolusion is turned completly off?

CoH Helper and HijackThis logs pls!| What could this be? Vista 64 bit, GTX 285, latest drivers, I run in maximized window. Often since i21 I boot into the game and the performance is TERRIBLE. 15 FPS. Even looking straight up/down. Utter garbage. This could be in only a moderately populated zone. Then I bring up the Enhancements screen, open and close a few windows like Badges, Missions...and then BAM!, back to 60 FPS. What's up with that? . |

You misunderstand. The FPS in the zone jumps back up to 50-60 FPS after opening/closing the Enhancements screen.| Those are 2D vs 3D graphic enviroments. 3D being more intensive on the card. Did you try running things at a lower graphic lvl. Lower shadows, world detail, and make sure ambient occolusion is turned completly off? |

No install necessary in either case.| I've never heard of CoH Helper before, but I'll have a look later. I'm not big on installing just anything, you know? . | 
Take a look at the "Help Me!" link in my sig (second to last one).
Sorry, your right, I did misunderstand. That is an odd issue.
