Slowness, but only after 6 hours of play?

Hi all,

 

I recently picked up this gem of a game and have been enjoying it since day one, which was last Saturday. It has run smooth as silk on my system, a P4 1.7 256 RAM, Geforce 2MMX, SB Live.

 

Until last night.

 

I noticed that whenever I save/load a game it is now taking considerably longer than it once did. I frequently use the F9/F12 combination to do this, and since last night when I hit F9 to reload, the game loops on a sound clip about 20 times before it starts to load, very annoying. Especially so, since I have about 6 hours into this game and this is the FIRST time this has happend!

 

The first time it happend I quit the game and checked for anything else running. Nothing. No AV, no processes but Explorer and Systray, I usually keep my system lean for gaming. I rebooted for good measure, still nothing else running, nothing in msconfig, but i have the same annoying symptoms!

 

Did something drastically change around the "Cairn Installation - Assembly Area" that increases load on the system? Because thats what it feels like now, or that someone stole half of my ram!

 

This is driving me crazy, I could see if it would have done this from the get go, but since I had already put in quite a few hours of saving/loading with no hiccups, to see it now when there have been no changes (honest, all I have had time to do is play! ) is pretty frustrating.

 

Any ideas?

 

TIA,
