The beautiful indie game Trine ran at a very inconsistent framerate and crashed on me several times, especially when there were physics involved. It was strange, because I assumed that a game like this shouldn’t be very demanding.
I found out that the problem was antialiasing. The difference between having it on or off is very noticable on most games, framerate-wise, but in Trine it’s the difference between crashing every ten minutes and running smoothly.
So disable antialiasing if you’re having problems.
If that doesn’t work, check the official forums.

Just like last time, the sound drivers are for some reason uninstall/not working after completely installing Service Pack 2 for Windows Vista x64.
After reinstalling the Creative drivers, it worked just fine.
