Have you tried running the game without your video card overclocked, just to see if that might be contributing?

In your message you say you have "nvidia 6900 overclocked with turbocache 256" as your video card, but the output you list from DxDiag says you have a nvidia 7900 GTX.
Which one is it?

Which one is it?well there is no such thing as an nvidia 6900. maybe he got that confused but that still doesnt explain why he thinks its turbocache.
