Admittedly my old system is approaching abacus status (Vista Home Premium SP2, Athlon 64 2.4gig dual core, 2gig RAM, HD5670, X-Fi Fatal1ty) but normally SH4 runs flawlessly on it (doesn't even seem to make any difference if I run GameBooster prior to starting the sim or not). But about 20% of the time I get slide show frame rates in the sim (menus are normal); I can exit and restart to no effect; I can restart Vista with no improvement. A few hours, a day, two days later I start SH4 again and it runs fine. Task Manager shows nothing unusual, and other resource intensive games aren't affected.

So, what am I overlooking?
