SR2 is actually just a very fast paced game. Its like your character is high on crack the whole time. I will say though that it was one of the most brilliantly fun games I have played last year, but comes with an extraordinary amount of bugs.

please list your whole system specs.

hmm yeah this pc looks a bit dated to be playing SR2 at all high settings. Thats a single core processor, yes?

try to drop the settings down a bit and see if it still speeds up like that.

yes it is single core
my computer is playing gta 4 just fine

well I just goggled the problem and it seems like several ppl are also having the issue.

I'm to busy this morning to read through the whole thing for you, but im sure they found a workaround/patch for this. Just goggle something like "saints row 2 speed bug"

i also remember that SR2 graphics are very badly "optimized". I saw this in person as I played the game and also saw it suffer for it in the reviews...in fact it was the main beef most ppl had with it.

you could have a rippin new pc rig with neato graphics card it would still run at like 15 frames per second just randomly.
