If you are running Windows XP or 2000, uninstall the SP1 (XP) or SP3 (2000). This ISN'T A JOKE! Uninstall it, reboot, download the hotfixes you need, then run Auto-Config in the Spearhead directory. Try to run the game, and see if there's an improvement.

Both Service Pack 1 for XP & Service Pack 3 for Win2000 contain a .DLL file that corrupts performance on most 3D cards that use a NVidia chipset, and sometimes ATI as well.
