Having problem w/c&c generals freezing

It just freezes every so often for a few seconds. Not exactly stuttering. Any ideas what is causing it?

What detail and aa/af settings are you using? Its an incredibly intensive (cpu+video) game. Is it happening even when there are only a few units onscreen?

sounds to me like some background app is running for that few seconds then clears up. Try disabling them all then give C&C a go......

oh and WELCOME!

Sad

I have the latest 1.04 patch for generals. I also tried the latest ati drivers. I am running the game @ 1024x768 with 6xaa and 16xaf on quality setting. No problems like that with any other game though. I have tried removing every background app that I could see. It happens in skirmish, net, and online games. Funny thing is that it was working just fine before I switched to a wd 80gb 7200rpm 8mbcache hd. I heard someone say something about netbios on another forum but I'm not sure what that is.
