Just installed TH2 with 2.0 patch today on my system, but have been having extreme problems with frame lag, including audio stuttering.
My system:
Dell M6400 Precision Notebook
Q9300 Quad Core
8GB Ram
Nvidia Quadro FX3700
IDT HD Audio

All drivers/bios/etc are up to date (made sure today). Will play all other games fine on medium-high settings, including Dues Ex HR, et al.

I tried some posted fixes for ATI cards and weird stuttering, to no avail. I have tried all possible video variations, from lowest settings to highest, no particular difference. Changing the resolution from the native 1920X1200 to 1680X1050 helped somewhat, but I'm still getting significant lag. Also tried disabling all background apps as well.

So what do you think? Is it my system? Is it a bug?

The Quadro cards aren't intended for gaming and don't get some fixes applicable to games. But the FX 3700m is a G92 (comparable to the 8800 GTS 512, which runs the game just fine for me) and shouldn't have any trouble with the game.

I have had more problems than I care to go into with audio interfering with games on Dell notebooks. If there is something interfering with the game on yours, that's where I'd look first.
