Hi,

Occasionally, and particularly during early game, my game will freeze up for a few seconds. Symptoms:
1. Screen freezes, but mouse can move, for about 3-4 seconds.
2. After screen unfreezes, units move super-fast for about a second to "catchup" for lost time.

I originally suspected this was correlated with sound (e.g. maybe the game is stuttering as it loads up a new sound), but then I seem to be noticing this even in the absence of some new sound event.

My system specs:
OPERATING SYSTEM:WINDOWS 2.6.0.6002 (SP 2)
CPU TYPE:INTEL(R) CORE(TM)2 DUO CPU E6850 @ 3.00GHZ
CPU SPEED (GHZ):3.02
SYSTEM MEMORY (GB):1.998
GRAPHICS CARD MODEL:NVIDIA GEFORCE 8600 GTS
GRAPHICS CARD DRIVER:NVD3DUM.DLL
DESKTOP RESOLUTION:1920X1080
HARD DISK SIZE (GB):225.977
HARD DISK FREE SPACE (GB):25.767

Hello Shockwave

Can you post an updated Dxdiag? I would like to see the whole thing to get an idea about other drivers and also to see which video card drivers you are currently using.

Press the Windows Key and R
Type in: dxdiag
Hit Enter or OK

Click on the Save All Information button at the bottom, and create a dxdiag text file, and copy and paste the data from the dxdiag file into your reply.
