I tried to play Everquest II on Windows Vista on x64 with ATi Drivers and the
lag was just horrible, I don't have any lag at all in XP.

Is it that Direct X 10 was not finished? (was maybe 2 months ago I tried
Vista but changed back to XP due to the horrible lag)

Anyone know why it lag that much for me?
I don't get this message in Vista like I do in XP.

Application ran out of memory when requesting x bytes.
Very known bug that SOE can't fix in EQ2 (Memory Leaks)

Windows Vista is a good 5 months away from being finished, as is everyone's
drivers.

I have similar lag, and similar comfiguration

Windows Vista (but x84 (32bit)) with ATi Drivers, but not play EverQuest II,
i don't know that this is the same, but i found that my lag is causing by
svchost.exe (seems some services), it can be save terminated, when i
localize what service is causing my lag i will turn it off.

Yes, I too see that Direct X 10 have some problems with games and programs,
or
programs have problems with Direct X, but this is BETA and i understand
that.
