Updated nvidia driver to 266.58 - helped a lot Started using 16-bit color mode - helped a lot A4 is now "choppy" in the inventory screens, pretty much running "normally" everywhere else, much more playable, I may end up buying this one too. Hope that helps previous posters and anyone else with the problem... I had to hold down the [esc] key for a full 2 seconds to get out of inventory screens. I'm still puzzled by the lag issue though, as stated earlier the hardware may be three years old, but A5 and A6 run no problem, as well as many more demanding games... just weird

Thanks for the replies, I will follow-up if a solution is found. I should also mention that the system I'm having trouble with is a WinXP SP3 with DirectX 9.0c.

Exact same issues, really poor A4 performance (especially inventory screens) A5 and A6 run perfectly. Intel C2D 1.8GHz 2 gigs RAM GeForce 8600m 256MB, updated drivers I think perhaps there is an nvidia geforce issue. I tested A4 with a DirectX11 Windows7 machine earlier today and it ran fine. Anybody have any ideas?...
