help. sticky win2k CTP2 play

[bumgravy]

my call to power seems to be slow sticky during game play, almost as if no graphics acelerations were active. scrolling around in the world and characters move slow and jumpy.

------------------------------
system

AMD 1800+
win2k
ati radeon 8500
-------------------------------
things i've tried to resolve problem.

installed new direct x 9.0b
installed newest ati drivers
installed win2k sp3 pack
installed ctp2 patch 1.1
played with various configs of directx and graphics acceleration features
------------------------------
any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried it with a DirectX version lower than 9? DirectX 9 doesn't exactly have a great reputation for backwards compatibility...

Failing that, upgrading the chipset and soundcard drivers might work as well.
