Your suggestion of getting Win 7 wont solve the poor performance of the GPU he has.
Indeed, they have a very low performance in DX10, we are talking about a dump of the first generation of DX10 cards.

The nVidia 9800GTX is a dumped 8800GTX Ultra, if I recall correctly, nVidia just did a core revision of the 8xxx series in the 9xxx series.

But if you tweak down those DX10 effects, like shadows and shaders, the game should run fine in non excessive high resolutions, in 1920x1200 you can have problems with 512mb of vram.

If the game runs better with that card in DX9 than in DX10 is how should be indeed, but is weird that in some cases is just the opposite with this game, I guess is a matter of drivers or hardware.

With my ATI 5870 the performance in DX9 is terrible while in DX10 is smooth and pretty.
