The drivers have nothing to do with your framerate counter. Bring down the 
console and type "com_showFPS 0"  - that should turn it off.

If the counter is yellow, you've left fraps open.

You should be happy with this performance. Unless anybody has any wacky 
suggestions to modifiy the config files of D3 directly, I think that's your 
lot for basic config.

Is it actually recognised within the mod menu? If so, don't know what's 
up..... if not, don't know what's up! Are you sure you're testing it 
properly? For instance, there's a smell chance the mod doesn't include the 
pistol, so if you're only testing it from the beginning of the game perhaps 
you don't have the right weapons yet?
