Anyone who plays this...Have you encountered a freezing problem where it'll lock up for 5-10 seconds then begin playing normal again? If someone could please help me fix this much would be appreciated!

What do you mean a rental? Didn't think you can rent PC games...But yeah I can take this game back if I wanted to. I done it before, and I will do it again. I don't want to though! I love this game but it keeps freezing. I tried multiple versions of DirectX, reinstalling CSS, and the GFX Card drivers and nothing. This sucks, really bad!

Well, if I turn my PC off until it gets cooled down it'll run fine for a while. Btw my GFX Card does get pretty hot when it's being used by any game. Should I just try installing another fan?

I think all I am using is Windows Firewall...Unless AVG Free has firewall built into it?

OK, I think I might know your problem because this happened to me as well.  If your video card is over clocked than this will happen its not to big of a deal

Sounds like you might be lagging due to overheating...Have you cleaned out the fan on the Video Card(if it has one), and have you cleaned out your heatsink?

http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=75018 That fan is nice, and can be bent/adjusted to point right on the video card. Mounts on an extisting motherboard screw, or where ever you can find a spot to mount it..
