Game Running Slowly with no good explanion

[Castellon]

The game slows down with the more units you have, this does seam logical to me, since the more units on the board the more calculations the game must make.
You apear to be saying it has nothing to do with your hardware or settings since you have tried everything in the FAQ. So my question would be, then why are you posting in the harware support forum?
I am not trying to be confrontation here, one always runs the risk of being misunderstood when not communicating face to face, I just do not understand?

Okay let's try some standard things.
1) Make sure you have the latest patch for the game.
2) Rename the AVI folder to AVI_back
3) Set the color depth to 16BIT
4) Turn off everything in the background like E-mail/ICQ/Messenger, Virus protection and everything in the system tray beside the clock.
5) Run a virus/ Spyware check
6) Update your Windows, update your Video card drivers and audio card drivers. Then repeat steps 1-4.

If none of that helps then:
Please run a DirectX Diagnostic:
Start menu –Run - then type Dxdiag, then select each tab across the top of the window, and run the tests on each tab. Then select “Save All Information” button in the lower right of the window. This will bring up a dialog box to allow you to select a name for the file where the information will be saved. You can save it right on the desktop as this will make it easy to find. Then copy the contents of that file from the start to the heading that says “DirectX components” then paste what you have copied into a post in this thread.

Nothing stands out as being wrong, I notice you do have one VIA driver, I know the 5in1 VIA drivers are known to be buggy but I do not think they would cause your HOI2 to slow down.
How long since you defraged your HD?

Did you try the game without any mods?
