No matter what I do, I can't get any fps improvement

Don,t bet that having an 8000 series GPU will help Frame Rate. I have an EVGA 8000GT Super Clocked w 1900mb bandwidth across the card and 512mb of onboard ram and the frame rate drops to a crawl and crashes from time to time. I have all settings for the card set to application control and still can,t stop the crashes. I have the EVGA drivers as well ( as opposed to Nvidia) This is the first game in recent memory where I have not been able to force the graphics. It is also the only game that crashes on my system. AMD 4200+ ,Asus A8N-SLI Premium mobo. 2 gig of Mushkin DDR ram and the above GPU. I have the AMD driver tweak installed and my whole system is clocked up. I realize that I am a little short on the cpu. This is my first try at sub sims... a little disappointing. BTW all my game settings are on medium.
