Thanks for all your replies, nice to feel welcome.
I have updated by laptops bios and video drivers to see if that will take care of the problem. Won't know for sure until I run into that convoy again. If I had known the problems I would have had I would have bought the disks, but it seamed so easy to buy from steam.
In response to merc4ulfate's comment above. My normal method, when seeing a destroyer task force or this convoy is to slip away a different direction to avoid contact and then bump up the time compression once clear, but once I see this fast convoy that no longer works, no matter how far away I get, the game is to bogged down by something to work above x64, even if the number on the screen is higher than that you can tell its not working. First time this happened I must have spent 3 hours trying to get back to base just to finish the mission but it was hopeless. Only thing I can do that helps is save the game after every battle and if I sailed to the west and encountered the fast convoy, reload and go east.
