Well, I got a new machine and it doesn't run UO well. It has a solid graphics card, and runs graphic intensive games that my old computer couldn't run (at all) fine; yet, it runs UO laggy as hell.
I have tried running it 32bit XP mode, prioritizing it, make certain that CPU reduction is off, etc.
Any ideas?

Try disabling visual themes and desktop composition; change it on your UO/Razor link so it only changes the display when you're playing UO.

Also check your color depth. See if 16 bit color helps. If it doesn't, change it back.
I run in 32 bit color.
Do they have 64bit color yet? If so, can a human eye tell the difference?

How do you add this to your shortcuts? I'd like to do this, because I like the Aero stuff in Win 7, but I've disabled all of that so I can see the built-in UO Assist in Razor with reg counter etcTry disabling visual themes and desktop composition; change it on your UO/Razor link so it only changes the display when you're playing UO.
It'd be nice to change it so it's only the "basic windows" when I play UO and new super special Windows when I'm not playing and just surfing!

Right Click on the Razor icon -> click Properties -> click Compatibility Tab -> check "Disable desktop compisition".
This will disable the Aero effects for just the Razor application, your Display/Coutner should show up now and you retain most of the visual effects while Razor is running.
