If you point out which known issue and what you're encountering specifically it might clarify somewhat, also a dxdiag (steps on how to reply with one are in the 'how to get help' sticky in my sig) can also help to determine if there's some other contributor to issues going on.

If your graphics card is one of the models below (quote from the known issues thread here) though you may encounter one of the listed issues:

• Computers operating with the following Video Cards may have performance or other difficulties:

• Nvidia 7800 GTX

• Floaty names may appear distorted. Turning off video post effects will correct the issue.

• Nvidia Geforce FX 5950 Ultra

• You may experience performance problems.

• ATI Radeon 7500

• You may experience performance texture problems in certain areas of the game.

• Nvidia Geforce FX 5200

• You may experience performance problems.

• ATI Radeon HD 3650

• You may experience performance problems at very high game settings.

• ATI Radeon HD 2400

• You may experience performance problems.

And if you do have one of those models, that is not something Turbine is really going to be willing to fix as it is a hardware design issue at the core of it.

You'll find other games also have issues with those.

Its you. the 4200 is pretty underpowered by todays standards. Lower your settings some more

But that of what you are describing would be client lag, and due to "months" other MS updates can also have an effect upon your gaming.

Some times you have to re install due to the fact of fragmentation within their files (defragging your HD won't solve this.) They may claim that they have that fixed internal fragmentation, but I proved them wrong. They never responded back.

I am also going to make the assumption you are in control of the fan for your GPU. You may need to shove up the speed if you don't. And if you have never controled it ever, it is possible it is starting to slowly die on you due to over heating. Both nVida and ATI/AMD fan cooling algorithms SUCK. The more I think on how bad they suck, I seriously wonder if they are purposely doing so to increase sales due to fried chips.

the good ole' "Wipe the computer clean and start over" can often add some life to an aging PC. Over the years, windows builds up so much **** in the background it slows itself down.
