What the freak is going on with my Painkiller games?

I have them all, Overdose is playing fine. I bought Black edition off of Steam and all of a sudden its jumping rampant, like the game is in 2xregular speed. Then all of a sudden, my regular game, which are in different folders, sperate from OD and Steam, its doing the same darn thing. I remember asking a similar question a while back but I cant find it. I tried uninstall, reinstall, again with ditching all saved games, nothing. I know it isnt my video drivers, I mean I'm playing HL2 and Bioshock and all otjer games just fine.
Please advise, I'm ready to rip my hair out!!!, or self-inflict with my own Painkiller LOL.

you probably got a dual core processor. you need to disable one of the cores when playing.
overdose got that fixed so it runs fine with it.

Work like a charm man, thanx a bunch. Weird thing though I have had a number of dual cores, didn't seem to become an issue until I got the 6000+ x 2, oh well. Thanx again, Penewah!

There is a special driver for AMD. You can download it here:
