Did you get the AMD Dual Core Optimizer? I had this same problem before I got that.

I have an AMD Processor (although not the same model you do) and i don't have that problem, but i'ld suggest that you run NFSMW and once the same starts you minimize it and bring up the Task Manager (pressing CTRL + ALT + Delete is the shortcut key i think) and find the process called speed.exe, right click on it and click on Set Affinity, now on the window that pops up uncheck CPU 1, click on OK, close the task manager and swith to NFSMW and see if that works.

If it does work you'll have to do this everytime you are going to play NFSMW, in other words everytime you close the game and launch it again you have to repeat the procedure i described above.

Hope it helps,

Cheers!

With the optimizer installed, you no longer have to Alt+Tab out.

Check for overheating, both on the CPU and the graphics card. Also make sure your power supply is capable of supporting your system for extended periods of time.
