probably none of these answers will fit your problem:
i had a similar problem.

i have following pc specs:

A64 x2 3600+
1 GB Ram
GF 7900GS
win2k

the main problem with RTW is, that the X2 processor slows your game down, because of uneven load balancing between the 2 cpu-cores (very simplified spoken).

A. if you run WinXP, everything should run fine AFTER you installed a little patch from the AMD-website.

B. if you run Win2K you probably need to install a CPU-management tool.
i use "easy toolz" for this. here you need to restrict the rtw.exe to one core.
alternatively you can do this in the taskmanager manually everytime.


this should improve your peformance.
