Hi guys. I'm currently playing Crysis 2 on a 1990 x 1200 resolution at about 30-40 Fps. It's running like a dream and it's a beautiful game. However, whenever a cutscene starts playing, it just starts stuttering and would appear to drop to about 5 Fps. I can watch the videos in the menu but not in game. It's bizzare! My spec: i7 CPU Ati radeon 4750 (Not great I know, but hey!) 4GB Ram Anyway, before you answer, I'm not upgrading my PC just for a game, the game clearly works, it's just the videos that don't. Thanks, Mike

A good CPU is important for what I use my computer for. Sadly, I was meant to get a better video card but never did. My drivers have been updated using the steam driver update tool. Don't know if that is sufficient or not.

Try lowering the settings and see if it happens.

Do I really have to lower them? The game is running so smoothly as it is, I can't see why I'd need to reduce the settings further. I really can't figure this out. How come I can watch the videos in the menu but not in game? It's so odd.

Well, it may work, it may not. Also, make sure that your background programs are closed.
