Anyone else run into this? I have had TW08 for quite awhile now and it has run smooth as silk. However lately it runs like a slideshow. I can't figure it out my other games still run OK.
I have a Dell Inspiron Core 2 Duo 2gig Ram and 256 Mb GeForce.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
MarkL

Hi Mark...
You did the confidence folder fix?

When you start playing TW08 game, it is important to know there is a bug in the game:
When you played some courses you will see the loading times between holes are increasing, the game will become slower and slower.
Do next steps to solve the problem:

On desktop you will see folder: My documents........
inside look for: Tiger woods PGA tour 2008....and inside go to folder: Career.
Inside Career go to folder: Players.......and inside look for your playersname folder.
Now you will see folder: Confidence.....and inside you will find files:
Hole Type.tcn......and.....Shot type.tcn
Now right click both files ( hole.tcn +Shot type.tcn) and delete both files.
When you did this: restart TW08 game and play 1 hole on any stock course and close TW08 game.
Go back to same confidence folder and you will see both files are regenerated: but now they are very small size ( 85kb or something like that) Now right click both files ( Type.tcn......and.....Shot type.tcn) and choose : Properties....and check box: READ ONLY. Do this for both files.

Thanks Gunpower,
I will try this. I usually only use stock players like Tiger or Goosen. Will the same apply for them as well?
