Jitter problems

hello list.

i notice that most of the posts to this forum are Max/MSP related and few
people post questions about jitter. But I'm having a little problem and I'm
hoping someone out there can help me. It may be a hardware issue, but i'm
hoping someone out there might have some insight. anything helps.
here it goes.

I'm Running Max 4.57 and Jitter 1.5. on a single chip 1.6gHz G5. I just
installed a new Raedon video card and was trying to output to multiple
screens (using both the Raedon and the GeForce that comes with the G5). It
worked fine untill I tried to output to 3 displays at once. Since then,
processing of some of the patches I made have slowed down significantly,
making them pretty much useless. Now I'm using only 1 card (the Raedon) and
just outputting to 2 displays, but the problem persists. I'm only getting
about 3fps, and I was getting at least 20fps prior to this incident. I've
rebooted, reset, re-everything other than wipe the hard drive and start over
again. I'm hoping there's another option out there.

Can anyone help?

thanks a lot.

owen.
