i was just trying to replay this great game, but whenever i start the game, everything is slowed down heavily. ive installed all the patchs up to build 46, im running on windows XP and no were on the net can i find a solution. during the opening it slows down/the frame rate goes to crap, there words constantly repeat themselves as it tries to catch up and in general during the game its heavily slowed down. anyone have suggestions on how i fix this problem?

Try turning off Speedstep/Cool'n'Quiet or any other power saving feature that could change the CPU's clock rate, some older games' timing gets fucked up by it.

i dont have any of those programs at all. it only does it most of the time, sometimes, like in the opening when all its focused on is the spikey planet and the ship, its FPS goes back to normal/moving fast. the second it goes through the portal though it drags down to near nothing on framerate and the sound begins to drag with it, all the way until im in the bar, were it then continues to be slow until i leave the bar and it loads the street, it goes fast agian until i enter the battle training place and slows to a crawl agian. im very confused as to why its doing this, i just newely installed it. its from the original disks way back when so a friend suggested i pirate a updated .ISO? what do you guys think?
