cutscenes lag

Post » Mon Jan 31, 2011 5:48 am

Hi people, when i play crysis2 campagne with video settings on extreme my alienware m15x plays superb,BUT,as soon as i finnish a chapter the cutscene kicks in and its laggy as hell,it has really bad slow down and is very choppy, you cant understand what is being said by ghole or whatever the gimps name is and its driving me insane.as soon as the cutscene is over and the gameplay begins everything is good again.im new to pc gaming and i can usally get my head round most faults but this is annoying me.ive also tried turning the in game graphics to lowest setting and it still lags in cutscene.ive updated videocard drivers from nvidia and its still the same. ive got i7 dualcore 2.66processor which has turbomode boost to 3.33.i got nvidia gtx460 1.5gig videocard with 2x(2080)ram or something like that. its not the best specs but surley it should be able to play ingame cutscenes.i cant find anything in forums to help me,but everyone seems to be going on about direct9x and game should be dx10 or 11.i dont really know if thats part of the problem but im hoping you guys out there can help me out,P.S. if its my laptop thats **** please tell me so i can hang my head in shame and feel like a mug about blowing a grand.thanks people.

alt and Tab doesnt work, it just puts the game in a window and still lags : (
