Not so random frame rate issue
 
Before everyone jumps at me and says disable a core etc - Just want to see if anyone has issue also.

Varies by zone, more occurant in indoor zones, generally about once a minute ill get like super slow motion game (effects my actual run speed in game), extremely frustrating in duels/trying to run out of zone etc... I have tried everything from clip plane, video modes, disabling my 2nd core. Not at home atm, will post comp specs- but its a AMD Dual core laptop.

Since it is a laptop it could be hardware acceleration issues. Does it have integrated video or an actual GPU?

You can have both integrated video and a GPU.

My old computer had a similar issue. When the CPU/GPU were overtaxed and/or overheating, it would throttle down the speed temporarily until things were alright again. When it did this, the game did what you're describing.

I don't have any links handy to any "how to fix" stuff, and I'm too damn sick to bother looking it up :P

Some googling may help though. "disable CPU speed throttling" or GPU should help. Toss in a manufacturer name for good measure as well.

I have this problem as well and I also have geforce go 7950 gtx. It doesn't sound as pronounced as you are describing but it happens intermittently like random graphic pauses.

I'm fairly certain nothing is throttling. I monitor CPU/GPU/HDD/MEMORY/etc temperatures and they don't even get close to dangerous temperatures.

I don't receive this problem with other 3d games either which is the puzzling part.

My old PC had the exact same issue. Its the dual-core AMD. You need to find some kind of runtime drivers and it doesn't happen anymore.

Did you try running WinEQ2? Its not what I did to fix it in the past, but it might work as well.

Found the fix I used way back when.

Try that. It should fix it right up.
