Extremely slow performance and sound issues - fixed! (for me at least)

I had problems with slide-show like performance and distorted/stuttering sound, which seems like some others are having as well.  All I had to do was to update my drivers... just like they say to in the manual :)

The culprit for me was the sound (SB Audigy 2) drivers.  The game was unplayable before, but now that I updated the drivers the games runs quite well on my relatively weak PC.

Would you be so kind to give us your system specs, that way if other ppl are having the same problem they can compare specs for performance and to see what a difference even drivers can make.

sure:

AMD Athlon X2 4200+ (2.2Ghz dual core... ancient)

2GB Ram

Nvida 260GTX video (896MB)

SoundBlaster Audigy 2 sound

Windows XP sp3

Dell 1600x1200 LCD display

I'm running at 1600x1200, with most settings either High or Medium, with AA off and Vsync off.  Dunno the FPS, but it looks and plays fine.  I'll probably bite the bullet and upgrade to an i7 system soon :)
