When installed, any part of the game that has user interaction (menu's and races) the game moves as if it's running at 3 times speed. Is this a common problem? Has anyone else noticed it?
I have:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
GeForce 7950GT 256MB
3GB RAM
All drivers are up to date.

Any thoughts?

Quote:
AMD Dual-Core Optimizer - The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer can help improve some PC gaming video performance by compensating for those applications that bypass the Windows API for timing by directly using the RDTSC (Read Time Stamp Counter) instruction. Applications that rely on RDTSC do not benefit from the logic in the operating system to properly account for the affect of power management mechanisms on the rate at which a processor core's Time Stamp Counter (TSC) is incremented. The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer helps to correct the resulting video performance effects or other incorrect timing effects that these applications may experience on dual-core processor systems, by periodically adjusting the core time-stamp-counters, so that they are synchronized.
