my hard drive is fine as far as i know....
and the lag is constant lag, going extremely slow, sometimes stopping for 1 or 2 seconds, but it does go to slow even to play the game. thanks...

try defragmenting the hardrive ...

start > programs > accesories > system tools

and it should be there. ... although i moved it from mine to the desktop ... so not 100% sure...

if not go to search and search defragment.

maybe you have spyware, adware or something ... do a sytem scan and see if anything happens ...

has it been running in the past ok ?? or just recently ?

since i have had the game it has been going slow, i defragmented and it was better, but still a little slow, its playable now, but any more suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

check for spyware and adware ...if you dont have these scanners go to www.download.com and search for

'Adaware'
and
'Spybot search and destroy'

what resolution are you playing at ? maybe reduce the resolution and see if that helps

Are you running any programs in the background?

I know I sometimes leave bit-torrents connected in the background which sometimes slows down other applications I use.

I dont think it's the CPU as I used to run it on a old AMD K6 266MHz with 128Mb RAM.
