What happens is: the game stalls, then the screen goes black, after a short while the sound and the game continues as it were as I am able to fire a torpedo e.g. and hear other sounds as well.
This happened on most occassions, perhaps on all, but this is so annoying that I immediately kill the game. It is rather puzzling, and Ubisoft still hasn't taken any trouble to answer my question. It is perhaps worth the gamble to buy a new videocard (120 euro costs for a 20 euro game, anyway it is probably worth it).

I was having troubles with that sound card, initially i use the game with my onboard sound card, but it take lot of CPU resources , then i change to my old SB Live Gamer/Player, it rise up the FPS, but has lot of sound bugs and extrenge behaviours.

I was enforced to buy a X-Fi.
