    Hey, guys. I just got this game a few days ago and am already running into slow downs and whatnot. My desktop consists of a Q6600 2.4Ghz processor, 2GB ram, and a 4850 graphics card with the most up to date driver. I have been trying to run the game on 1680 x 1050, my native resolution, on directx9 very high texture. All three campaign runs really slow at the start, even when graphics are lowered to high. For those of you with a similar system, what are your settings? Thanks!

    edit: a faq said that if I have a Dx10 card, I should try running the game in Dx11. The faq said that it should run slightly faster. Dx11 crashes before the game even starts lol
    The game runs real bad even on 1280 x 800...there has got to be something wrong.
