Sluggish video performance on MBP

I installed Win XP Professional on my SR MBP through Boot camp. I got the Windows driver from the Leopard DVD. I found that graphics performance is sluggish. For example, whenever I drag a window, I see traces. I attempted to download the latest driver from Nvidia website but after automatic graphics card detection, I got a message directing me to Apple for the latest driver. Anybody experience sluggish video performance? Anyway to solve this problem? As I am running XP under Bootcamp, video performance should be good...

Thanks. The color mismatch problem has been solved. However, video performance is still not as good. I still see the traces as I drag the windows across the screen.
