I just got the first part of Starwars Knights of the Old Republic and am having a serious problem. I have played about halfway through it before this started. Its kinda hard to explain exactly what its doing really, See i will be running around and the game will get all choppy and i let up on all controls and my charater continues to go in the direction i pushed last untill about 30 secs and then all returns to normal as long as i dont move. the sound continues to play fine too. i have a ATI Radeon 9550SE with the latist drivers and latest patches for the game and have ran out of ideas.
i have faith in you all here, you gotta help me :bawling:

    that card isn't all that powerful. still, you shouldn't be experiencing that kind of behavior. check your system for viruses or spyware, or even some other program you might have recently installed. it sounds like maybe there's something running in the background that you don't know about. also defrag your hard drive, it might be that the game is slowing down because it's trying to load stuff from cache and it's getting it slowly.

    nah i appreachate your opinion but im pretty anal about spyware and virus. i hang out in the SVT section a lot and when im not doing nothing important im always updating/checking for updates for spybot,adaware,cw shredder,highjackthis and spyware blaster. im not a genious but i wouldnt say im a noob at computers so i dont think its somethign simple and obveious.
    Granted the 9550 isent all that but it CAN run the game wide open with around 30-50Fps. the only thing iv downloaded recently is some kind of cd copyier that came with some nasty spyware that i was to imeadeatly to get rid of so i dont think its that either.

    Is the game patched to the latest level?

    //edit: never mind, I missed that in your first post. :(

    Agreed on the hard drive defrag. I have KOTOR and I was able to run mine smoothly (although I have a GeForce 6800, but your card surpasses KOTOR's recommendation).
