Yes, a IM is an instant buzz kill with this game. My favorite is a Norton Virus update. That can screw up a whole patrol. This game uses A LOT of resources. Turn off the background programs and let the game have all you got. Your computer has enough butt to run this game. My set up:

AMD 64 3200+
1 gig RAM
ATI XGE X1300 512mb vid card
Onboard sound

I run with all sliders to the right but not all option check. Enviromental, 3D water and light rays through the water are unchecked. Either I see no difference or they are a FPS killer. Environment is a hugh FPS killer for me. Anyway, update to current drivers and some tweeking will need to take place. BTW, if you have some soundcard that is not on onboard sound, these have been know to create some CTD issues.
