    I am having a major issue with rf2. When I run a full lap I get micro-stutters every second or so. It doesn't occur on my out lap, only after I driven my outlap and about halfway through my first complete lap. I have been trying to find the fix for this issue for over a month. I have disabled the replay functionality, reduced my graphics, optimized the settings for my video card, disabled all unnecessary system services, you name it. Any idea what could be causing this?

    Update. I noticed this happens at between 4 to 4 1/2 minutes after I get on the track, no matter how many laps I run. I can sit in the pits for 4 minutes, or go out on track immediately and it is always around the same time.

    Take out any plugins you're running and see if that stops it. If not try turning off replay recording.

    Haven't alt+tab'ed but thank you for the advice. I also removed the plug-ins and it started again after about 5 minutes. I also disabled as many system services as possible again with no luck. I also have had replay disabled all along. This is really frustrating. You would think that once I got around the track once or twice without stuttering that this should work, but no such luck.

    Sorry, missed where you said you'd turned off replays.

    Very strange. CPU/GPU temps ok?

    They appear so. I disabled HDR and it looks like that might have cleared it up, but I'll have to give it a few more runs.

    do you have your CPU in power save mode by any chance? I noticed that I get micro stutters if I have my cx stepping enabled... I disable it now in Power settings from Control Panel before running any game/sim and haven't seen any stutters in the past year, SLI or single card!
