Did you install the patch? It is on the official BIA site. Also read the sticky how to fix bia.

thanks for the post puffader9

i have a very similar problem where it lags for up to 15 seconds for every 2-3 seconds of game play even on the lowest settings. my computer is p4 2.4Ghz; 512 RAM; nvidia ge-force4 Ti4200; windows XP

i've defraged, installed the patch; increased the RAM via bia.ini; shut down all the other processes including norton autoprotect with very little effect

Theres your problem the P4 1.4 thats hella low for this game. Even if the requirments say you can have a P3 to run it...it dosnt say it will run it well.

Also what you might want to do is. Wile in windows hold down ctrl+alt and tap delete and disable all the programs that have your name next to it. Although DO NOT shut down taskmanager or explorer and DO NOT shut down any of the systems,Local Service, or Network Service things.

Another thing, when I tried to edit the bia.ini file it slowd my game down, so I have to reinstall it and it was fine again. But that just might have been me.
