Xtreme Pro 5 with very bad graphics performance on Windows 7 64

[jpavel]

Three points.

1. I'm running Xara 5 on Windows 64-bit with no problems, so it's at least possible on some configurations.
2. Try the thread settings mentioned in this discussion

3. I've found Xara 5 interacts poorly with certain 3rd party software, such as clipboard managers. It might be something else on your system messing with it.

Editing the registry as described in the second post did the trick. I changed the default value from 32 to 2 and to 1, and in both cases performance is much better (Core i3). Thanks, Jesse!

I did a clean install just two days ago. The system is fresh, and it's pretty bare bones. I don't even have real-time virus protection installed.
