Hi, returning player here. My system should not be experiencing issues with this game. I do no have problems with any of my other games.

The screen continuously freezes every 2 seconds for some reason. Is this is a compatability issue with Vista and/or hardware?

Since the dxdiag exceeds the text limit, here are my specs instead

Windows Vista Ultimate x64

E8400  @ 3.60GHz

P35-DS3L

4 gigs of OCZ Platinum DDR2 Ram

GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896MB

Everything is up to date.

Does anybody even bother reading these forums anymore?

My guess would be it is the Vista. Since you have no other problems with other games, I doubt it could be any of your hardware. This games always been a pain with Vista, nothing I can help you with there.

I like your beta coat though.

And if you run it all on low settings, it also does the same?

It makes no difference regardless what setting it's on. Anybody else out there with this series of cards and/or vista that has issues running the game?
