I have a dog of a rig:
P4 3.06 HT
1GB RDRAM
Nvidia 6600GT 256mb AGP
Running patched German version with the language patch applied.
To start with the game was graphically glitching all over the shop, messy shadows and colour glitches etc. however...
I installed the latest Direct X (even though I was under the impression that I WAS running the latest)
Then I installed the latest OFFICIAL Nvidia drivers (I WAS running a teaked version)
Then I defragged my hard drive.
Now I can run everything on normal but with shadows and textures on high at 1024 res with no problem (although I may drop down the textures to normal if I get any slowdown when things get REALLY busy). I don't know the FPS because if the game isn't stumbling I don't care.
So if you have some performance issues give these steps a go:
Clean your system of all spy/malware and close down msn etc.
Defragment your hard drive
Install the latest DirectX from microsofts website (even if you think you HAVE it already)
Install the lastest OFFICIAL drivers for your card
