americas army stuttering under vista premium

ok guys I am now using a vista premium platform that is giving me headaches.This is happening on a new vista premium system. In game I get a stutter where game freezes and the imiage zooms/in/out ie stutter.I stated tracking the timing of the stutter problem and noticed that it occurs every 60 seconds over and over.I started disabling startups for virus/devices etc and nothing changed.I then started working my way thru the event viewer that is now this enormous expanded tool that tracked everything going on in the vista system.Finally I found a windows log event for armyops.exe Ie americas army, that was occurring every 60 seconds. the event is flag an application event information only and the general description is:A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by process (ArmyOps.exe)I am running aa with the properties set to admin so that I can launch it. Otherwise AA is running as installed.There is very little information on the desktop manager so now I am stuck............Ideas anyone..........dxdiag follows. partial due to usenet limits System Information Time of this report: 2/26/2007, 19:59:10 Machine name: VELDESKTOP Operating System: Windows Vista™ Ultimate (6.0, Build 6000) (6000.vista_rtm.0611012205) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: System manufacturer System Model: System Product Name BIOS: Phoenix AwardBIOS v6.00PG Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.4GHz Memory: 2046MB RAM Page File: 870MB used, 3441MB available Windows Dir: C:\Windows DirectX Version: DirectX 10 DX Setup Parameters: Not found DxDiag Version: 6.00.6000.16386 32bit Unicode DxDiag Notes Display Tab 1: No problems found.
