Last week the game ran fine I made no changes since then. Started it up on saturday and was real choppy. Like it was taking 2 sec for each frame to load. So I updated my video card driver to the 191.xx with no help. Not sure why I said that about the vidmem. I also deleted the game and reinstalled to no help. I have tried different video settings with no help.
