So, I was installing some updates today for my Win7 64 OS...

I usually dont care to install anything else than the critical ones. But I saw it was 10 recommended, and a few of them was application compability with 64bit system, so I thought I'd install them. Guess what ... game runs like a dream now (with the custom DLL thou, havent tried without). It's probably just a fluke that it works for me, but thought I′d give a heads up to try those updates, it might save alot of headache for someone else. Now Im off to enjoy the game while it lasts

everyone! this man speaks the truth. i just came on right quick to rell everyone i am playing new vegas and for the first time since its launch i can now not only play it, but enjoy soaking in the beauty of the wasteland without it stuttering every single second. at max settings, as my man said, it runs smooth as silk. ive been playing for 2 hours and only 3 times did an object stutter for like a second and thats it. this game is now completely not only playable but enjoyable. do this people.

EDIT: the only important windows update i'm seeing is the windows defender one.

As I said, it wasnt an "Important", it was a "recommended". Or well, it was 10 of them for me, so I cant tell which one of them who made the game working for me ...

I saw no recommended downloads at all, lol.
Nothing new here either http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/resultsForCategory.aspx?DisplayLang=en&nr=20&categoryid=7&sortCriteria=date

Maybe you just forgot to update at some earlier point in time? Who knows.
