I have spent a long time googling for help to these problems, so I thought perhaps I would post and see if anyone can help. The game and all drivers are up to date, so that is not the issue.
Problem one: the responsiveness of the mouse is poor. the cursor moves, but reacts too slowly. Adjusting the in-game mouse slider (set at 10) up or down does not fix it. and commands, like jump, are delayed by just enough to make it nearly impossible to dodge the first boss's energy beams.
Problme two: sound stuttering. I turned off hardware acceleration on the speaker settings, and that makes it good for about 5 minutes, then the problems resume. Since the designers made the incredibly dumb choice to only permit saves at checkpoints, it means living with the sound problems for a long time, or turning the volume on the speakers completely off.
Any help would be appreciated.
System should be fine: Dell 4600, 2.80 Ghz Pent 4, 1024MB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 5200 (128). I have tried two different sound cards, a Creative that came with the Dell, and a Turtle Beach card.
