Help! Silent Hill 2 (PC) ATI Radeon 9700Pro Monster Stutter

Does anyone here have this kick ass game for the PC? If so, do you have that annoying stutter only when there are monsters nearby? The game runs like a dream until I have to enter an area with monsters in it. Then, the game goes from 200FPS+ to a stupid stutter that drives me nuts!
Any help appreciated!

Sounds like a driver issue. Report it to ATI and open a ticket with the game developer's support service; they may know of a driver parameter you can tweak. I had a similar problem with 1nsane and an older version of the Radeon drivers once, and the game developer told me that switching the Z-buffer to 16-bit mode would fix it. Lo and behold, it worked (until a patch came out and made the kludge unnecessary).
