You might get lucky and solve the problem thru the NVIDIA Control Panels 3D Settings/Manage 3D settings; Scroll down to the Vertical sync options entry and set it to "force off" and then apply the change. If you don't want to make global changes just edit the GR:AW/GR:AW2 entry in the Program Settings tab (same page).

It would help in possibly resolving your problem if you could list your computers specs, particularly your CPU and GPU type/model, and the amount of RAM you have, just as Colin suggested.
GR:AW2 was supposedly optimised to run smoother on mid/low end systems but there have been countless reports of users with GeForce GPUs' and low system RAM (both Vista/XP) experiencing this video freeze.
Do you have any open memory sockets on your board?
