Thank you very much for the quick reply.
I think your post is cursed. I have the same problem ever since I read your post!!! I have no idea what could cause this :(
EDIT: FOUND THE CURE! Change the game's compatibilty mode. Windows XP Service Pack 2 seems to work, but i'm sure the other ones work too! :)
Haha, thanks, I'll try when I get home.
Can confirm, the compatibility mode fixes the issue for me too.
Glad it's helping people out. Thanks Konami
