Hey guys,

I recenlty purchased this game and totally regret it. I've got a very annoying problem that makes the game basically useless to me. The problem is that the game will run fine for a while, but will start to slow down ... slower and slower ... until it is CRAWLING. And it's not just my computer being slow - if I simply save the game and reload it, it will run fast again.

I can see that some people have had this problem, but I can see where people have tried to describe this problem and other people have misunderstood it. This is not just general slowness - this is definitely some kind of bug in the game that causes it to run slower and slower, as if it has some kind of memory leak.

I have tried a lot of the stuff that people have suggested in this forum, and in other places, but NONE of it makes a difference.

I have changed video drivers, wiped out Steam, changed the heap size, changed the graphics settings in the game ... none of it helps.

Can anyone help me get this buggy piece of junk working? Also, I have a TON of games installed on my machine and NONE of them have problems.

My specs:

Dell Inspiron E1705 Laptop
Intel T7200 Core 2 Duo @ 2.0 ghz
4GB 667mhz DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900GS 256MB (driver 179.48)
Windows Vista 32 SP1 with Microsoft Update enabled

I am using the Steam version of the game.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem????

So now you are spamming this place to say it's a 'piece of garbage' and 'junk'. While You had a virtual drive and Deamon Tools you had to unmount and remove for Securom copyprotection. Wouldn't be surprised if you -being a programmer- have more software installed Securom doesn't like. The game runs fine for most people whose PCs comply with the system requirements and are clean, but you insist it's the game. If programmers are such knowledgable people, good luck to you!

Am I missing something, or is this the same thread as that one, minus all the replies? And why can't I find that thread anywhere?

Edit: Never mind, I could have sworn that topic was in the community tech help section when I posted in it. It's actually over in the general forum. Sorry.
