Try to activate your game with GameSpy key on Steam service and use to play the game (you can download Steam client here: http://store.steampowered.com/). That should solve your issue.

Sorry but how do i do this as i bought game thru EA.

Do i reedem my Activation code through steam? BUt would i have to pay for game again?

No, you shouldn't pay anything extra. Run Steam client (I assume you have a Steam account already), click on Games in top menu and choose 'Activate...', then enter GameSpy key (multiplayer key) you have. Please tell us if this solves the slowdown issue.

okay cheers guys ill give this a go tonight...

I got a code with MOW purchase (to activate) so i presume this is the code.

[Sneaksie]

You should have two codes, one for activation and one for multiplayer - use the multiplayer code to activate the game in Steam.

why would this slow the game down horrendously though?

Has this been common?
